from lower linkage. Screw turnbuckle onto both upper and lower linkages

simultaneously. (See figure 3) Note that the threads on upper linkage are left

Remove the 3/8" nyloc nut and spring disc washer from the stud on top of the

transmission. Install the shifter lever through slot in shifter lever plate and

Shift lever to second gear and check alignment of lever in slot of shifter plate.

Clearance between top of lever and the top of the slot should be about equal to

the clearance between bottom of the lever and the bottom of the slot (See

figure 5). If it is not, remove lever and bend it slightly to adjust. DO NOT bend

lever while it is attached to transmission. Reinstall lever and tighten hardware.

Shift to neutral position. Lever should not contact the left edged of the upper

slot. Push lever down. Lever should not contact the right edge of the bottom

slot (See Figure 6). Shifter plate can be adjusted side to side to adjust position

of lever relative to the slot in plate. Loosen the two bolts securing the shifter

plate to the shifter lever legs. Adjust shifter plate and retighten bolts.
