I installed a Road Race oil pan on my V8. Now my shift rod is in the way. I need to decide on a J West or cable setup. Anyone have pics of the J west system from the firewall to the tranny?

On my car, it's a straight line from the firewall coupler to the sideshift console coupler. You can make the rod any shape, as long as both ends are in the same plane ...

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) Andy There lies my other problem. The Renegade kit lowers the tranny 1 inch and moves it back 1.25 inches. Not on the same plain anymore. I'm going to need to offset the rod and use 3 or4 U-joints with a carrier bearing in the middle, maybe on the engine cradle. I no longer have a strait shot. The road race pan kicks out 3 inches on both sides of the pan. |
