On my 74 teener with a v8 the "shift linkage bar/rod" has been cut,welded and worm clamped together and looks generally like crud!! I worry about its structural integrity. My question is.............Are there different "rods" for different years for side shift trannys? I need this before I post in the classifieds for one so I don't look silly on many boards. THANX!!!!!

Here's the PET catalog with diagrams and part numbers of all the 914's parts https://techinfo.porsche.com/techinfo/pdf/e...USA_KATALOG.pdf (3.6 mb). Do you have broadband in Iraq? Stay safe.

I am SOOOOOOooo computer illiterate that when I bought my computer I had to buy a hammer to shut it off. I know I am pretty fast here but can't compare it to anything else. It comes off of a satellite dish and magically, it works!!! The catalog did come through. THANKS!!!

Ian,
If your transaxle has been relocated rearward then this modification must been utilized. Some "extensions" are more glamorous than others. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Mine isn't the most pretty thing but it's damn strong. If your car shifts well, with the current ugly extension, then I'd focus on getting the extension rewelded and call it good. Hose clamps are no way to go. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Seriously dude. Stay safe the best you can. We need all of the 914 owners we can get.

When I did my shift rod I had two rods. I figured out how much I needed to lengthen the new rod. I cut both rods, one with the added length. Then I located a piece of round bar that fit inside and plug welded it inside one half, then slid the other section on and drilled a hole through it. I used a grade 8 bolt with a nylock nut to secure the other section. This allows me to remove the shift rod easier.
