screwdriver can do some shifting-i got mine into 3rd and manouvered home with that. the whole assembly cost $50 used, and that seems to be a standard price, FWIW. also, you can change this with one or two torx drivers-it is more simple than it looks. i would not weld this up. i tried on a Lancia Beta Coupe i had years ago-lasted a month.
the tube is hollow, and is spot welded above and below the ball, so welding will make a high stress point at the top, and you will spend alot of time grinding to make sure you have range of motion.
now, if you have a small workshop, and a dremel, you can turn this into a short shifter in a couple of hours. you won't have reverse lock-out, that's all. good luck
