QUOTE I got mine to a "mostly OK" point just now. The main issue I found was actually the pivot where the rod from the trans connects. The circlip had popped off and the bushing is pretty much shot (i.e. missing) too. The pivot was therefore flopping around all over the place on its shaft. I couldn't find an exact-fit bushing at the local hardware store but I got one that can possibly be modded to fit. I replaced the circlip & washers so the pivot can't move nearly as much on the wrong axis.. Don't screw around with "modding" it. I got my bushings from the Cap'n. They were cheap, for P-car parts. E-mail Larson, he'll hook you up. |
