I searched but could not find... I have a '74 with side shift and ALL fairly new bushings. If I grab the linkage and move it from the firewall back, everything is nice and tight. The shifter though has roughly 4" of play side to side at the knob. As of a couple weeks ago, third has become difficult to find
There does not appear to be any support for the shift rod inside the tunnel other than the firewall bushing. Is this correct? Is there a better solution? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |
