73 Javelin Auto Shift Handle

[JOE FULTON <piper_pa20@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

My Javelin had the typical broken horseshoe shaped
shift handle which I replaced with an aftermarket
handle. The only problem is that one of the four pegs
that the handle sits on is missing.

The tried using JB Weld to hold the handle in place. 
I taped it down overnight while the JB Weld sat up. 
No joy. 

Does anyone have any suggestions for mounting the
shifter handle without removing the shifter assembly? 
If I remove it, I think I can tack weld another peg
onto the shifter, but I would like to avoid the
removal process.
