I have a 72 the PO converted to a side shifter.
When shifting into 5th, the shift linkage hits the heater/blower lever. Is this normal? Or maybe a step left off the conversion? Something needs to be moved over a 1/4 inch. Any ideas? |

Are you sure it hits the lever? I had a problem with the shift rod hitting an internal bracket.. I had to cut an access hole and grind the bracket opening a little larger.

That's exactly where my shift rod hit when going into First/Reverse, I got tired of the squeek and sprayed white grease on the rod and that brace, but I know it will come back!:angry: |
