I posted my initial problem in the drive train section but no response so I came down here for some help. Long and short my shifter is dicked. Pulled apart and two of the three torx bolts holding the dust boot onto the shifter housing were missing and the third was hanging on for dear life. The boot was cracked. I didn't even pull it apart to inspect because I've got a ripper to replace it but inside the housing I found the selector spring lying in there and can't find a diagram of how it should go. I think it's okay to reuse as I think it was knocked off when I panicked trying to get it in gear and because the two bolts were missing I could spin the shift lever enough to knock it off. I posted a pic of how I think it should go based on the instructions for installing the ripper. Any help is appreciated and if you noticed anything amiss in the pics that I don't see please tell. Trans fluid looks good and clean though.
