Has anyone ever broken a shifter arm in half before?

Well, I have. happened on my way to class this morning. Broke right at the top bolt. So ive been shifting all day with the little rub off the shifter base and my thumb is complete raw and swollen.

does anyone have a stock shifter handle or maybe a hurst one they want to get rid of cheap? ill go to BOC if i have to, but id like to see if anyone had one laying around first

Thanks
-Donnie

Donnie,

I have a stocker at the house. If you need it, I can bring it to work tomorrow and then we can meet up.

Just call me if you need it...

(PS. The Ripper is a good shifter! That is the one I have in the black car.)
