4.12. Within the housing for the shifter control there is
a torsion spring that returns the shift lever to the
center of its travel. There is not a detent mech-
anism in the shifter control. See Figure 4.12.
4.13. On installation of the shifter control:
• Position the bolts in the shifter control housing
prior to installation. There is insufficient lateral
clearance to instal them all in-situ.
• Tighten the nut to 96 in-lb. (10.848 Nm). If the
nuts are too tight, the housing will distort, and
operating effort will increase.
4.14. If the cable is to be replaced, the front end of the
cable can be disconnected as described in the
procedure for removal of the shifter control.
4.15. The back end of the cable is permanently
attached to the shifter arm. See Figure 4.15.

4.16. Match-mark the shifter arm to the splined end of
the shift arm shaft, then remove the clamp bolt
using a 10 mm wrench.
NOTE: The clamp bolt engages a groove in the
shift shaft. It must be removed.
4.17. Use a pair of 7/8” wrenches to remove the end
jam nut on the threaded end of the cable hous-
ing. The cable core will pass through a slot in
the bracket. See Figure 4.17.
4.18. The cable can be withdrawn from the vehicle in
either direction. See Figure 4.18.
NOTE: The correct routing of the cable: through
the recess in the lower front corner of the tank.
4.19. Confirm that the cable is correctly adjusted
before returning the vehicle to service.
