I broke the same 3-4 shift finger again yesterday during second round. After this happened at the end of last year we ordered a couple and replaced them, this one only lasted 30 runs this year. Anyone else having this problem?

I have not broken that, but have had a few friends that have. I wonder. Maybe check with Scott at Jerico and see if the heat treat or a engineering change ever took place.
They have a bunch of stress on them, especially those that use the taller shift handle and a lot of clutch.

Only racers I've ever seen break them were using shifters without stops or the stops not correctly set. Have a freind with 4 speed jerico with hundreds of runs never broke it.

I seem to remember a thread some months ago about a batch that were more prone to breakage. Scott at Jerico is the one to talk with. Also be sure that the shifter stops are carefully adjusted to lessen force on the finger and the fork.

Bobby I'll look in my spare parts. I've never broken one. Do you have a v gate shifter?

I have 2 Jerico DR4s with Long V Gate shifters, and neither shifter has any stops.I`ve had 1 trans 12 years, the other about 5 years, never broke that piece.

I run stops and I checked them today, they never moved and we set them up on the bench to make sure they were perfect. This piece seems to break coming out of third and going into fourth so I don't think the stop has anything to do with it. I would think there is more stress coming out of gear then going into the next gear.
