Reply To: 1958 Johnson shift handle

[David Stanton]

What HP motor do you have there? Shift handles were different for different HP motors those years. I have a 10 HP that had both those parts broken and found a guy here a few years ago that had NOS parts at a reasonable price. Note the 10 HP parts only fit 10 HP motors.

That part the handle mates to has two slightly oblong holes in it where it looks like there is a broken slot. That screw at the base of the handle goes through one of those holes, and yes you need that part.

I bought both parts from Ken Hall, who deals in old parts. Contact info for Ken is below. Have your model number ready to be sure you get the right parts.
