Any chance that you have the shifter top and linkage for an h55 in a 40?

What the heck is that shifter with the funny bend in it from?
Name that part because I have no idea what it is. I'm thinking th blue pieces are for the firewall steering shaft?

Top piece holds clutch fork boot on the early style, stamped steel clutch fork.
Piece directly below that is the engine vacuum junction mounted on the driver side firewall that feeds the selector valve on the passenger side firewall for the vacuum controlled front drive acctuator mounted on the nose cone of the transfer case.
Piece to the left of the vacuum junction is the jack support from under the driver seat of trucks that had a tool box under the driver seat, 08/72 and earlier iirc.
Bright, clean black piece to the right of the vacuum junction is the OEM muffler support that attaches to the driver side frame for the 1974 and earlier trucks.
Yes those blue pieces enclose the firewall opening where the 08/72 and earlier steering columns pass through to the steering gear.
