With the trans in neutral, attach a bungee from the shift lever to the passenger side door handle while the adjustment bolt is loose. Rotate the splined shaft to the right as far as it will go, then tighten the bolt.

Rotate the splined shaft to the right as far as it will go, then tighten the bolt. Love this idea, and notices someplace someone mentioned that the shaft could be rotated with vice grips. My problem is I can't get small vice grips in there with a socket and extension on the bolt. It also appears that the bolt is too far aft to get to unless it's in 1, 3, or 5. |
