Re: Finding neutral

3 on the tree rocks!

pay attention to the parts in shift box on column before you put it on the road, unless it has been rebuilt already there is a good chance there is enough slop that it will occasionally fail to entirely shift one transmission leaver to neutral before trying to put the next leaver in gear and you will end up jammed in 2 on the upshift or 3rd on the downshift.

the roadside fix is to hammer the shift leavers on the bottom end of the column back to the neutral position. if you end up stuck in 3rd on a hill, your parking brake is weak and you had no passengers with you this becomes humorous
