Yes,I believe it is made out of nylon or some form of plastic,Its shaped like a ball,About a inch and a quarter in diameter, cut in half with about a 1/2 in. hole in it.The shaft that goes from the frame to your trans selector fits in it and it acts as a brng and is free to move with the eng & trans.If you lost yours,should be an easy find in any scrap yard....good luck

thanks for the responce i went to a salvage yard today and they gave me what they think it is tell me if this sounds right it bolts on the frame and has a bar comming out of it and a piece of shifter linkage that goes to the trans where it bolts to the frame and the bar is there is a nut holding the bar on the part that bolts to the frame and the bar that sticks out has a hole in the other end that is just an open hole best i can tell so if this is the right part should that bar have an open hole in the end or does something go there too hope i didnt confuse you with this too much and thanks again for the help
