Dorman redesigned this bracket as an OE FIX solution: stronger material, a twin-bolt fastening system and a direct-fit geometry that simplifies installation and reduces the chance of repeat failure. The assembly also includes a direct replacement shift interlock solenoid so the repair restores both mechanical strength and proper locking function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy does the factory shift bracket fail on these trucks?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFactory brackets were cast from a relatively soft aluminum and relied on one bolt to take the repeated loads of shifting. Over time the bolt works loose, threads strip, or the bracket fractures, which creates excessive play in the column shifter and can make gear selection unreliable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOriginal single-bolt design concentrates stress at one point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSoft cast aluminum prone to thread damage and cracks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRepeated shift motion accelerates loosening and failure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Dorman 905-671 improve durability and fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDorman addresses the failure modes by using a higher-grade aluminum alloy and adding a robust double-bolt clamp that spreads load across a wider area. The part is engineered to match OE mounting points so it installs without modification and aligns the shift lever and cable correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStronger aluminum alloy resists cracking and stripped threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble-bolt design distributes shifting stresses evenly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDirect-replacement geometry for bolt-on installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes this part restore the shift interlock function and is there a bracket-only option?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 905-671 assembly includes a direct replacement shift interlock solenoid so the interlock function is returned along with mechanical strength.
