i know there is another topic on right now about this but my situation is kind of different. i have been having trouble with my sideshift tranny since i got the car a year ago. we pulled out the tranny and everything worked, we could engage all the gears and they spun around just fine so we put the tranny back in but i was still having problems. i replaced the ball cup bushing at the tranny and adjusted the linkage until i could get all the gears just fine. i can shift it into 4th and 5th from the tranny and the stick inside the car and it is engaged. But when i put it on jacks and ran it 4th and 5th didn't put any power through, the engine just revved and the speedo fell back down. somebody help me out here. thanks

You might also ckeck for a tight fit at the coupling of the 2 shift rods. if the cone screw is not tight or the hole is sloppy you are not rotating the aft rod far enough to select 4-5 gear. Or you did not get the shifter lined back up on the front rod . Getting tis right is a pain. 1. undo all 3 bolts that hold the shifter to the tunnel 2. use a thin vise/narrow grip to hold the shift rod 3. loosen the binder bolt on the shifter 4. rotate the the rod left one spline at a time till you get your gears to select. Yes this is trial and error. |
