I've got the 3 speed '3 on the tree' column shift. The reverse switch is mounted on a bracket on the column shift linkage. It is enabled /closed when reverse is selected by a section of the linkage pressing the switch in. The switch is a momentary 'on' type and is no longer working. Has anyone replaced this with an aftermarket switch and if so can you share a part number for it? Thanks
 
Solved: Found the perfect replacement on Amazon. The Fastronix Heavy Duty Push Button Momentary Start Switch (with Neoprene Cap)
Part number: 305-001. The switch is intended for momentary high amperage usage but works just fine for this. Its fits exactly in the bracket and it even has a nice rubber cover just like the original. Only rework required was changing the electrical connections to ring terminal.

This was a big help, thanks! It worked perfectly and seems much more robust than OE. I thought I would pay it forward with some photos of this solution for anyone else interested
