Step 14: Install a rod end onto each end of the threaded rod. Attach the threaded rod assembly to

the

inside of the trans gear lever and to the outside of the quad lever using the 1/4"-28 x 1"

button head bolts, flat washers, and nylock nuts as shown in

Fig. 9 and Fig. 10. The button

head bolts can be installed from either direction, but make sure the flat washer is installed
between the rod end and the bolt head or nut.

Step 15: Check the adjustment of the shifter by placing the shifter all the way forward into

the Park position. Make sure that the release button still moves up and down freely.
The release button should be flush with the knob in Park and Neutral. In the Reverse
position, you cannot pull the lever back into Neutral without depressing the release
button.

While the shifter is in the Park position, make sure the transmission is firmly in the
"Park" detent, with no tension on the threaded rod. You can verify this by removing
the 1/4"-28 x 1" button head bolt with nylock nut that attaches the rod end to the
quad lever or trans gear lever at either end of the threaded rod. Make sure the hole in
the rod end exactly aligns with the hole in the quad lever or trans gear lever. The bolt
should pass freely through both holes at the same time without binding. Do not force
the holes to line up.

If the holes are not aligned, screw the rod end in or out just enough to be able to slide
the bolt in and out without putting tension on the threaded rod. Make sure that the
quad lever and trans gear lever do not move during the adjustment procedure. Use this
adjustment routine until the bolt will pass freely in and out of both the rod end and
the quad lever or trans gear lever. Reinstall the 1/4"-28 nylock nut and the flat washer
in its proper position onto the bolt, and tighten.

Once you have the shifter adjusted correctly, tighten the jam nuts on the threaded rod.

Step 16: Double check to make sure that the bolts connecting the left side banana bracket to

the shifter assembly are tight.

washer from the right side banana bracket using a 7/8" wrench or socket.
