shifting and terms (was 'My Squareback broke!')

[Toby Erkson <Toby_Erkson@ccm.jf.intel.com>]

Hmm, I don't know a lot about trannies but I understood what he was 
saying...the hockey stick is INSIDE the tranny, not externally like what it 
sounds like you are used to working with.

Hey, speaking of proper terminology, what's a "siftrod" (see your sig)?  :p"""

OK?! OK. first of all... what exactly do you mean by this (above) ...it
doesn't really make a whole lot of sence...Second... you said that you
could move the shift rod, but couldn't move the "hockey stick"... WHAT
is this "hockey stick" you are talking about :(
...
I have replaced numerous shift rods, couplers, and trannys... I could
probbably help you if you where a little more explicit about what you
are talking about and tried to use proper terminology (it would make it
alot easier for others to help you then too). :)
