Exclamation I broke my shifter...

...in my Cavalier, because I'm that hard-core.

But no, seriously, think I could jb weld it? That stuff is supposed to be wicked awesome.

Getting it fixed properly is the best bet, but for a ghetto fix go for JB-Weld plus a couple of small angle brackets to bolt it down. And stop eating spinach Popeye!

JBWeld it and you fail,anything other than something that isnt being in motion or has stress points, JB weld is good for. But if its in a high stressed area of the car, do not use JBWeld pleaseee, just get it welded. Just save up and buy one, it can come in handy alot someday
