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 |

Don't drill the roll pin out. Just drain the transmission and remove the two 8mm nuts. It comes right out in less time than it would take to drill out the pin and you won't destroy anything.
Maybe someone got reel smrt ( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/teef.gif) ) and use Loctite on the shaft or something like that. |
