T Case swap help

I am about to swap my electric tcase for a manual one. My truck is a 96 and the case is from a 94. Both cases are 1354's. Its tough to find a complete picture of what the case should look like complete out of the truck so I just want to know if I'm missing anything before I start this swap. This is what I have, do I need anything else?

The case is turned the wrong way....but it appears you have everything but the shifter ball and the part of the linkage that bolts to the stud sticking out of the case.

on the far right of this pic...


Here's an assembled 1354M....(little different linkage as its a 02-03 unit)...

Yes easily, program it into the Eurocad punch and punch the piece out and the rectangle holes then round the ends with the grinder or plasma. But honestly it would be easier to just get the part, is there a part # for it?

I'm saying make something to slide over that linkage with a threaded set screw to push into the linkage. If that makes more sense... Like how those aftermarket shift ***** are usually done. Shifter slides over the arm and a set screw keeps it in place.

Posting to shane's hack at me.

Talking about a set screw to go through the upper handle of the case linkage to the lower linkage. SIMILAR to how it works with afermarket shift *****. I can't really explain it any more with out spelling it out.
