Also, I can't seem to find the link to Red Beard's artical on adjusting the shift linkage. Thanks for the help |

Thank's AAron, thats what I thought. Last night when I hooked up all the linkage, selecting first gear actually put it in 4th.
What am I missing? |

easiest thing to do... loosen the rod to shifter connection in the tunnel... MANUALLY put teh car in second gear (middle of up down, and clicked to the back) then put the shifter where you think second gear should be..... tighten the screw. you will be very close... fine tune from there.... |

If the shifter in the car rotates the bar the same way, won't it still want to push the shift rod up as the shifter is pushed to the left?
Sorry for the confusion, I'm new at this part |

Ok now I am really confused. The shift rod that exits the tranny moves up and down, is first and reverse all the way up or all the way down?

Speaking from memory only,
I believe that first/reverse has the shifter (on the trans) closest to the trans with the ball forward (for first). |

that would make sense, since the gear selector in the car, when pushed over to 1st and rev. wants to push the shift rod up. I'm thinking the up posistion of the shift rod (at the trans) is 4th and 5th.
