Well after seeing so many people have problems with these, I thought I could help explain. Waiting for my camera to charge and I will try to get some pics with maybe a few more details.

Our 68 has over 200K miles on the original linkage and a lot of town miles so it has been shifted alot. I think I have had to adjust the linkage and grease everything only 2 times since my dad bought it in 1972. Thats 38 years of shifting (some pretty hard) with very few problems. Pics coming.
