jerico 3-4 shift arm lever issue

I think the way a Long shifter works means no stops are required. If you look at the mechanism the pin rolls through the gates and can only go so far until it hits the end. That is your stop. As long as the shift rods are adjusted correctly it shouldn't over stress the trans.

I bought my trans and shifter together and it was already setup and I haven't touched it in 8 years. I leave the rods on the shifter and unbolt the arms from the trans when it comes out so the rod adjustment never changes. The lever breakage sounds like a shift rod is out of adjustment to me.
