anyone have any pointersAny advice on changing out shifter linkage?
I am looking to change out my stock shifter linkage with one from wicked image. Does anyone have any pointers to help make this an easier install? Thanks for any help!
RE: anyone have any pointersAny advice on changing out shifter linkage?
What model do you have?
Maybe I'm missing something, but isn't it as simple as removing the bolts that hold your current shifter linkage in place, and then bolting the new shifter linkage on?

Hes probaly wondering if when he takes the old on off if anything is going to snap out of place or fly off. Good question but I dont know, never done it before so I woulod also like to know the answer. I wouldnt think anything would move out of place but lets see what the judges say....
RE: anyone have any pointersAny advice on changing out shifter linkage?
The only thing that will move is the shifter peg. As long as the new linkage is the same length as the old one, when you bolt the new shift linkage on, it will automatically move the shifter peg back into the correct position.
