Fred,
The shifters are interchangeable. I am switching my TR4A handle to a TR4
handle this weekend when the gearbox with OD go back in the car. A PO had
used a TR4A (66xxx) donor gearbox in my car with out changing the shifter and
the knob is too close to the controls in 1st.
Triumph did add an "anti-rattle" thingy on the end of the TR4 and TR4A
shifters that you may want to retro by drilling the "3" shifter and moving the
spring and steel ball.
