Replacing Shift Linkage

[mosspoint79]

Good Morning,

I'm trying to replace the shift linkage and have no clue how to do it and where to get it besides the dealership, and we all know how they run.

2002 Lincoln LS V6

Only other option is junkyards. Gen1 cars are showing up there somewhat regularly, and the V6's tend to still have the drivetrain. V8's get pulled pretty quickly.
