Default Need Help in Cincinnati....

I bunged up the threads on my gear shift lever so I decided to use a die to clean them up but I managed to break it off right where the threads start!!!! Does anyone know a place I can take it to get it threaded, I kinda like it shorter anyway.......

If it is a stock shifter and you cant fix the threads I will trade you the bad one for a good one if you want to make the drive to Dayton.
Good luck, Dale

That is a most kind and generous offer, Thank You very much. Fortunately I have a creative mechanic and he was able to drill a set screw into the remaining shaft and shift ball and now I have an automatic short throw shifter, it's really cool and I like it better than it was before.
