TH400 finishing nail?
Hey guys,
I dismantled this TH400 I just got, and there was a finishing nail holding the shift lever. Is this common practice? I saw it on a Youtube video of a rebuild as well. What's the proper way to redo this? Is it a part I can buy from somewhere, or is the nail an accepted solution for this?
Thanks,
Dante

Skip to 12:50 for the gory details.
I've read in another forum that a cotter pin was too soft for this application and might degrade earlier than expected on a heavily used transmission. Not sure how much truth there is to it since this is my first TH400... I do have a whole box of nails in the garage, but could easily look up for a cotter pin.
