Question shift linkage ?

I have been neglecting my hobby and friends for some time now, but I am back and have been busy getting the Blazer together. I have the engine in the K5 running and almost have it in driving condition. I am missing a few parts and am planning on scouring the wrecking yards for them but I need some information from the folks here. I am missing the automatic shift lever from the column to the transmission linkage.
Q- Do I have to find one from a 4x4 donor or will one from any auto truck work?
I think that any lever will work but I figured I would put the question out there.
Thanks in advance for any feedback,
Mario

Re: shift linkage ?

From what I remember they are the same for tilt columns. I pulled the tilt out of one of my blazers and it had the same rod as the one on my 2wd.

BTW Welcome back to the board. How's Texas working out?

Re: shift linkage ?

Yea Krue it is good to be back. The wife gave me the authorization to get the K5 running, so I am spending all of her money before she changes her mind. I am happy to be back but it is taking a little getting use to it with the new rules and all of the changes. The board looks great and I see that you, Bill and some of the senior members have been uped to staff. That is great! I also need to send Josh some money. I am going to have some parts to sell in the feature and I also need to buy some.
Thanks for the info on the shift arm. I am going to scouer the yards tomarow. I will keep you guys posted on the Blazer and get some pics soon.
