1984 Lincoln Mark VII Shaky Shifter.

The shifter on this car has been sort of floating since day one. After talking to Brian W about his 1984, I decided to open up my shifter and was truly surprised when a busted screw, a roller, and a steel clip fell out of the driver's side of the center/shifter console.

Wow, that's odd...
Ugh! Reminds me of the time my shifter-cable broke on my old 85.
Talk about being stranded.
Fortunately, at the time (1995), the part was still available.

After disconnecting the shifter cable and the ignition key removal switch, the shifter came out with four screws.
