^8 Road Runner Reverse Swith inop

Ok here is the skinny. I have a 68 Road Runner with the reverse lights inop. I have discovered that the switch arm is missing from the top of the steering column shift rod. This arm is connected to the shift rod and moves a tab on the reverse swith to operate the lights. QUESTION: Were in the world can I find a replacement switch arm? Can anyone help me out here, PLEASE!!

that might be tough finding that unless you raid another column from a salvage/swap meet. It may be a common part in most mopars of that year. From what I can remember, the roadrunner column was pretty standard issue. Would be nice to know what parts would interchange. I'll bet that most of the columns were the same inside.

Save yourself the trouble. use a later model switch from a '70 up. it mounts on the trans instead of your one wire connector it will have three prongs. Neutral safety sw, and reverse lights all in one. way easier.
