you dont say if you have coloum auto or t-bar, what u need is the linkages from a statesman that ran a T400 or an after market shifter to suit, My HX runs a t400 and has a Hurst Promatic 2 shifter. Keep an eye on ebay also.

Hi there, I have a T400 in my tonner with a column shift that I bought from the wreckers from a Statesman. Cost $120 complete.
If you need a floor shift you can buy these from the wreckers, from Statesmans

Try a standard trimatic shifter rod of any HQ-WB with a floor shift trimatic. The connection to the shifter is the same, just on the other side. The connection to the transmission is through a "trunnion" with a setting screw, which also holds the trunnion
