Thanks,

I have not seen an answer posted and seached around... I've been trying to find an answer to this too? My wife will not drive the 87TD with the kids, as it can shift out of gear so easily without pushing the brake pedal.

Can this be swapped from a 1990+ car easily? What is involved?

I think it's the "brake pedal shift interlock" cable, but do I need to get a different brake pedal and /or shifter to adapt it?
