Hi,
The plastic cover for my side shifter linkage is not installed. To install it, I need to separate the shift rod from the shift rod end. Separate #27 from #24 in this diagram... (IMG:http://www.pelicanparts.com/914/Parts/Pedals/shift_linkage_side_big.jpg) Any tips? I have the tapered screw out (#23), but the two pieces seem very tightly joined. I have searched, but most refer to the joint close to the firewall. Will I be able to replace the plastic cover with just this joint removed, or will I need to take off the firewall joint as well. Thanks, Walter |

Either I was very lucky or very ignorant, but when I dropped the [sideshift] tranny out of mine [75 2.0] and needed to separate these two parts, I put the tranny in gear, then removed the screw and used the shifter to just pull them apart. I never used any lubricants, heat, hammers, or fought the shifter- they separated with minimal effort. Then just had my dad push in on the clutch and I manually shifted the tranny back to neutral before completely dropping it. I can't remember which gear I put it in, but it was either 2 or 4- so that I was pulling back on the shifter when I tried separating them.
Have you tried that yet? Or are a bunch of the experts gonna jump me and tell me just how stupid that was? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
