This one?

It's made from steel not aluminum like most SS are, so the chances of it breaking are smaller, but still possible. For $35 I doubt you can go wrong.

they seem to be made of steel (good thing) and do away with the factory bushing at the pivot in favour of a sealed bearing (also nice) but that can be a drawback if that bearing becomes coroded and/or falls apart...for 35bux I would give it a whirl mainly based on its steel construction...but in reality I would spend a next 35 and get a tried, tested and proven b&m shifter kit

The chances of shifter braking, either way, is minimal. Bushing is the most important thing, make sure you get a good one.
