	Hello all, I have a 1998 2.2L Chevy Cavalier. Yesterday the cable that goes from the shifter to the transmission came loose off the transmission. I have been told by a friend who says he has done this that all I need to do is use a spot of JB Weld and put the cable back on I just would like to know if anyone has done this? Thanks to all and GOD Bless you and your families Kenneth

	Unless you know what/where the failure point is and the nature of the failure, I would think it is a little early to say if JB Weld would work or not. Even if you can cobble it back together, a new cable on Amazon is $43.00. Getting stuck again at night in a bad neighborhood in Miami - priceless.
