My '72 tail shifter shifter rod bushing is leaking and I'm about to tackle the replacement. The tranny is in place and has never been messed with. Does anyone have a blow by blow on the best approach to do this. Obviously, photos would be a great help but I'd appreciate any suggestions on what NOT to do as well as any how to advice.

Replacing the shift lever shaft seal on a tail shifter is a bit of a chore. There's a special tool required to remove an internal roll pin (under the square cover plate on the bottom). The roll pin needs to be pressed out so the shaft can be removed and the seal replaced. T H O M A S made a pin-press tool for doing this and we used it to do the job on my tail shift trans.
Not sure who else has one of the tools (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |
