My shift rod linkage cover has a crack and is leaking. It looks like I'll have to disconnect the rear linkage to change it out? Is that difficult to do? Also, which lubricant and how much do I use when I do? Thanks as always.

nothing to it, just remove the two set screws after rolling the cover onto the rod and pull out the rear shift bar and then replace the shift shaft seal, plenty on the shelf, and might as well replace the crown bushing and shift cup bushing while you are doing it
