Panic: shifter just moving back and forth, can't start

Ajrango linked the part you need above.

You could also call the local Chrysler dealer.

Advanced auto has a doorman (help) kit that that has a bunch of different ones in it. I don’t remember the part number. It’s like 5 dollars or something so not a big loss if it doesn’t fit. That will work if you’re in a hurry. But like I said the OEM one fits the best.

Thanks everybody for the help.

I did a search on autozone and advanced auto and there is nothing particular to my model jeep. Is this a general part that a clerk can look up?

The Mopar part # is 68137495AA. Dorman 14041 is an assortment that comes up for the 2003-2006 TJ.

To get it going now, you can connect 2 zip ties to reestablish the connection.

really? Ok. I would like to at least get it started, will this do the trick? It seems to be stuck in reverse.

gonna try this tonight. Two questions: zip ties go into the holes that the bushing would go through? Does the shifter itself need to be in any particular spot?

I did mine in a parking lot, and I was in Park. I left the broken piece in the arm/attachment and zip tied it just like the picture (it wan't through the hole).

Okay. On mine those holes are not even close to eachother.

Put your shifter position to reverse, (where it was when it broke) and the hole and bracket should line up.
