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.
