12. 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.

This is very important.

13. 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.

14. Make sure the transmission is in Park.

Install the transmission shift lever using

the nut and bolt supplied. Now install the

kick down lever with the original nut and

washer as shown above.

15. Take the small nut, two rubber boots,

and one large nut and washer off the

transmission end of the cable. Insert the

cable into the bracket. Install the large washer

and nut and the two boots. The cable should

be pushed down on the oval slot. Rotate the

shift lever clockwise to the Park position.

Now you are going to put the swivel onto the

threaded end of the cable and turn it until it

lines up with the hole of the shift lever from

the bottom side. Install the cotter pin on the

top side. If it needs more travel, loosen the

large nuts and washers and move the cable

forward or backward to gain more travel. Then

retighten the large nuts and washers. Install

the small nut and tighten.

Cable Adjustment: If you do not adjust the cable correctly you could

damage the cable, shifter and/or transmission. Put the trans in Low

gear and the shifter in Low gear, set the swivel so it slides in and out of

the correct hole freely. Then move the transmission and shifter to Park

(all the way the other way). Rotate the cable swivel until it slips in and

out of the hole freely. Now go back and forth between Park and Low

gear and fine tune the adjustment. See instructions for further detail.
