Np235 gear lever problem

Hi If you've ever taken the gearlever out ,theres a good chance you broke the little hooks off the locking cup that holds the gearlever down and keeps it from popping out.
So has anyone got a clever way to fix this,or must would weld these small things back on.

Ok I think your looking for the snap ring that holds the gear selector in place? If so you can buy these parts find a tranny shop that rebuilds NP435 and show them what you need. Or check a sponsor.

Yeah I guess in South Africa it might be hard to find if you need one get a pic and I will search the parts catalog and send one your way shouldn'd be more then a few bucks.

I did the same thing on my old one, it took me forever to figure out how the damn thing comes off, my dumb *** ended up getting pissed and snapping those things.

Luckily, np435s are still pretty common and cheap at salvage yards. I got a new one for $50.
