AUTOMOTIVE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER AND METHOD ASSEMBLY ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A modular shifter and method of assembly is provided with components assembleable in a common direction to facilitate assembly. The shifter includes a multi-piece base adapted to attach to a vehicle, the base including a first side member and a separate second side member. Cross support pins are insert molded into one of the side members so that they extend laterally for connecting to the other side member and to space the side members apart. A lever subassembly is pivotally mounted between the side members on a pivot pin, the pivot pin being supported by the side members between the side members. A cable bracket and a detent plate are connected to the side members by the cross support pins, the cable bracket including a stabilizing flange that abuts and is welded to the detent plate to stabilize same. The lever subassembly includes pawl means for engaging the detent plate and further includes cable connector means for operably connecting to a shift cable. The side members, the lever subassembly, the connector bracket, the detent plate, and the pivot pin are configured to be assembled in a common direction, thus facilitating assembly.
