ABSTRACT:
A gear shift mechanism for tilt cab trucks comprises a lever-receiving structure disposed on the engine/transmission structure. The lever-receiving structure includes a ball joint. The shift lever is removably received in a socket of the ball. When the cab is tilted, the lever becomes detached from the ball joint and is centered in its through-hole in the cab floor or engine hood by bands or wires and tensile springs, which are fixed or tensioned between the lever and the edges of the through-hole.
