Just for you, I'll start using more of a "newspaper article" type format. In that classical model (which most modern journalists have apparently not even heard of), the headline and first couple of paragraphs give the summary content for the whole article. Each subsequent paragraph gives progressive more of the details. Then, if the reader is interested, he or she can read as far down the article as their level of interest and detail mandate.

Jim, changing the link is a great idea! I went ahead and ordered one, though not the same one you did. One thing I noticed though, the shaft that connects the pedal to the connecting arm is so sloppy that even with a better link there's a lot of play. Is yours like that, or did HD just do a sloppy job boring. (I've found that the metal they used for the casting is pretty soft, but I can't believe that it could get so sloppy in only 6K miles.)

Since noone confirmed the thread size...
....I will confirm for anyone else who may want to swap out their shift joints.It is 5/16th 24 right hand.
as is the new hardware you'll need since the OEM has the "bolt" built in.
