Hi all, Can someone suggest a manual for the mechanically challenged. I'm trying to improve my shifting on a factory 914-6. I got a set of bushings but don't know where they are on the car and how to change them. Also thinking about a RennShift but wanted to try the bushings first. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks, shep

The 4 makes a jog to the left at the firewall and the tail cover rod stick out to the side. I think this was to get around the heat exchangers. Not entirely sure as I've never owned a tailshift 4. The connection between the shift linkage and the tail cover rod are different as well.
So, the 4 has 1 more peice of shift linkage and 2 more bushings (The round plastic balls on the firewall) for slop than a tail 6. Internally, the tail 6, tail 4 and the 911 tranny shift the same way. And that linkage has slop too! |
