 I just bought a 1974 JH5 with a 5 speed Getrag. Unfortunately the shift linkage is terribly worn. It feels like the shifter is set in a bowl of jello - extremely difficult to reliably find gears. I am told that Pete Bahr will perform the definative linkage repair ($385.00), but he needs a critical mass of 3 or 4 worn linkage units to cover his machinist costs. If anyone else has a similar problem and wants to get the fix, please let me know (jhsiegle@gmail.com) or contact Pete directly.
Alternatively, if anyone has a better suggestion for the repair please let me know.
