Modified shift linkage -- does it look right?

[davepl]

If you've followed my build you know that I went with a TH200-4R overdrive while the original TH400 is saved away in storage. Physically, they're pretty close and it dropped right in.

Today I went to hook up the shift linkage, and it appears that the 200 has the linkage a little forward and inboard of where the 400 has it.

In order to make it work, I flipped around the frame bracket and used spacers to move it inward about an inch. I won't be able to test it with the column linkage until the cab is back on, but it seems to work by hand, even though it's not lined up perfectly.

Below is a photo. I'm wondering if anyone has run into this before and come up with a different or better solution, or if anyone can spot an obvious issue with how I solved it.

Thanks,
Dave
