1990 4 speed gear linkage

[nzfrank]

Hi
The gear lever on my 1990 ford gearbox seems to have lost its location. It moves up from its original position and I no longer need to push down to engage reverse.
I have removed the aluminium transmission tunnel and the gear lever pulled out with no resistance. There is part of a metal fork-looking thing on the bottom of the gear lever but it does not locate in anything.
I have not been able to find any bits below the gear lever.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Hi Just happened to my 93. Nylon bush on the rear end of the selector shaft had broken up .

Is this the bit you need? https://www.retroford.co.uk/product/plastic-gearbo...

I went for this one from Burton Power for mine.
