I've heard it both ways (nod to any Psych fans out there), and preferred orientation of the linkage?

Thanks!

The forward side of the carbs.

Throw the cross bar linkage in the garbage can. Personally, I'd recycle it.

Sticking your arms inbetween the rear of the carbs and the rear tin around the trunk. Trying to see while you fiddle with the crossbar drop links with tiny wrenches. When mounted on the forward side the linkage assem is out in the open requiring no contortion.

The spring loaded bar is not optimal. You may have to shorten the bar. There is no cable holder. I was not pleased when I bought one from CB.
