Welcome aboard!
I'm not exactly sure how the column end of the shifter is hooked up on a '72. Does the lower end have a slotted lever on it? I know they changed sometime, but not sure when.

Welcome to the site from North Caroina, if you get the chance post the question in the drivetrain section. The answers have always apeared for me there.

the rod or rods snap into a plastic keeper in the column arm.
