5. FINAL CHECKS/SEALING
Before installing your center console or sealing the mount completely, you will
need to make certain you can shift through all gears smoothly and that you are
able to engage into reverse gear. Problems may arise with this if not enough
material was removed or there are any burs that exist on the left rear edge of the
cut-out. This is due to the side-to-side lever arm potentially being too close to the
edge of the cut-out. If adequate material is removed, there will be no issues. If
necessary, unbolt the shifter mount and make final adjustments to your chassis
with a dremel or grinder.
Left rear edge includes these areas
If all motion is smooth, you may apply the silicone sealant underneath the vehicle
to all edges of the shifter mount assembly for a completely sealed enclosure.
Re-install the factory center console, shift knob, seats, and exhaust.
Exhaust Note: The Karcepts Shifter Mounting Kit avoids any exhaust
interferences when the factory exhaust height is maintained. Clearances
between the bottom of the shifter mount and the top of most exhaust
systems have been observed to be around 1.5 inches. If this dimension
is less than 1.0 inch, the use of exhaust wrap under this area is required.
