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.
