I took the guy out for a drive today and then went to check the tranny fluid level. When I pulled on the dip stick, the finger pull broke off so I need to find a new one to replace this old one or maybe I can JB weld it to work. Any recommendations?

Thanks

Chuck,

Apparently a common event -- I got mine from JimK. The old one can be brazed.

Mine's the same, but it broke above the cup about half an inch.  ViceGrips<tm> work great.

I have and extra or two....somewhere... if you want one. Also I'd bet that Manny has plenty of them.
