I am working on the drawing today. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I should be machining them here soon.
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...0904&st=60# The shift forks link. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Kind of tough to sum up in words for some people, but there's a pic in that thread. They go through the smaller holes in the pic in this post: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=40904# and the tool (that I'm working on, but is available elsewhere as well) keeps the rods lined up with where they should go through those holes to adjust shifting. Much better to see in the video, or in person; but that should give you an idea of how a person with mechanical skills CAN do it. |
