6. Push the cable down through its outer cover so that
it will be as short as possible. Put the column in
Park. Now, figure out where you want the bracket to
be, 5 o’clock will probably be a good place. Install
the swivel on the small thread and turn it until it is
centered on the thread. Now, install the small nut
and turn it until it bottoms out on the swivel. Do not
tighten yet.
7. Reinstall the shift lever as close to the swivel as
possible. Now you could turn the bracket or loosen the large nut and
adjust so that the swivel goes into the 5/16” hole that you drilled in the
shift arm. Insert the cotter pin in the swivel, tighten the large nut and
bolt on the bracket. Do not tighten so much that it squeezes the delrin
bushing in the bottom of the column. This could make it hard to shift.
Remember, the cable has to be pushed down completely.
8. Route the cable towards the front of the transmission. You may have
to bend it into a circle to take up some slack. Stay away from exhaust
pipes! If this cable gets too close, it will melt and not work at all. This
is very, very important!
9. On the 727/904 Chrysler
transmission you must
remove the original shift
lever and kick down
lever. Remove the two
pan bolts marked with
X’s in the picture above
and install the bracket
towards the front of the
transmission.
10. Spacers need to be placed between the
bracket and the transmission pan with the
two bolts that were marked with X’s holding
it all together in the holes of the bracket as
shown.
