Hey gang,
Quick question for you folks. I have a 3spd on the column in my truck and I've been toying with the idea of moving the shifting pattern up to a higher location so that when I put it in 3rd gear the shifter isn't laying in my lap. What I did last night is re-adjust the linkages so they went as far down through the lockdown bolts as far as they'd go before the linkage was ready to come out. Then I went to the 2/3 gear selector and lined nuetral up perfectly and tightened that down as well. Truck shifts great, and I managed to move 3rd gear about a half an inch higher than it used to sit. I don't want to weld more length of rod to the linkages but I had another idea. Is it possible (on the shifter arms that are located on the transmission) to remove the bolts, carefully pull out the arms then reposition the arm to where I want them, then simply just replace the bolt? I don't know if there are splines on those arms or if you can only install them one way? Just curious? I thought I'd ask before I crack into it. Thanks ahead of time for the feeback guys.
