Looking for lower steering column parts 67 Cuda

When something mechanical fails something has to give. Engineers provide a point of failure relief. So if/when the electrical/mechanical reverse lamp switch binds/sticks, A week driver might not be able to move the shifter. Strong driver could apply enough force on the shift lever to a steel pin and have springs and things fall in the floor from that switch. Plastic pin moving the switch was engineers failure relief point. Proper service repair is both plastic pin and switch replaced.
