Uh, yea. It's definately replacement time. And by that tag it looks like it is (was) a 242.

I guess now you just have to figure out if you want to go with another 242 and swap out the shift bezel or replace it with a 231 and the correct linkage for it. That's assuming the 242 linkage was also swapped into in whenever the T-case was swapped. I'm not sure if they can even be made to work interchangebly or not. Probably not would be my guess.

A junkyard would be where I would look first. Not sure where else other than a dealership and that would probably be very expensive.

As far as how much? That really depends on the junkyard you go to. The ones where you pull your own parts off can usually let stuff like that go for less than the ones where they pull the parts for you.

I prefer to go to ones where I can pull the parts myself. That way I can make sure to get all the nuts and bolts that attach everything.
