78-88 cutlass 442 GT-350 J rod Shifter Spring GM part # 559983
As the years have passed those with a floor shifter have seen some wear & tear.The J-rod shifter spring goes underneath the J rod & allows it to stay in theup position. When youdepressthe shifter button on your shifter handlethe slider button pushes down on the J-rod to allow it to go thru the detent bracket notches. The spring pushes the J-rod back up to lock you into a desiredgearposition.
If you do not have to push the button in on your shifter & the shifter does not lock into position this is most likely the culprit. They have a tendency snap in half over the years or simply fly off the chrome shifter base.
