The big whammy to watch for is the correct alignment of the internal shift rods once you change them. This requires the special jig. If this is not done correctly, the parts inside will wear out quickly and it will shift like poo. I think RJMII is selling the jig. Are you selling them, Jim?
Yes, I go over what you need to know in the video. I still have some copies (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
