Help this clip is whipping me.

Just put rebuilt transmission in works great. Except the clip the holds the shift cable under the car keeps popping off. How's does it go really!!!!????

Here is the clip installed correctly

Thanks got it!!!

Mine was loose even when installed correctly. I ended up putting a zip tie around it to make sure it stayed in place. Not pretty but works.

Yeah I got the zip tie on as well.

That clip didn't work worth a shit for me either. I ended up tossing it in with my pile of bolts and use a shim in its place. Works great and keeps the cable in perfect position.

I lost that stupid clip on the way back home from a trip and when I pulled into a gas station I was not able to shift into park. Just got new clips, but will be adding zip ties with the new ones.

I'm telling ya guys, a fender shim works perfectly.

Got a size on that fender clip? I did not enjoy laying on the hot azz ground to manually shift the car into park :-(

It's one of the thicker ones. Buy a pack of shims at advance or somewhere and it will fit snug. I bent the tab down on mine so it's easier to get on and off and can't rotate and fall out.

Would you happen to have a pic?

Its just a standard pack of fender alignment shims. If you have any OE ones lying around chanced are you have one that will work.
