Default Toe shifter adjustment 2010 SG

I need to lower the position of my toe shifter. It looks as though it requires the removal of the heel shifter first before the adjustment can be made. Is the toe shifter fitted to splines on the shaft. Just looks kind of a simple adjustment to make. Anyone did this before who can confirm this or give something advice it would be appreciated, thank you.

Rick

Yes both are fitted on the splines of the shaft. Take out the cap bolt and pull the shifter off and put it back on using a different spline position. You may have to spread the slit in the shifter a little with a flatblade to open it a bit in order to pull it off.

that's all there is to it, just remember to completely remove the bolts on the shifter arm prior to removal.

Also, remember to use some blue loctite on the bolts when you re-install them. The heal shifter has a habit of loosening up and falling off. I actually used red loctite on mine - just have to remember that when you go to make the next adjustment, cause you'll have to heat them up with a heat gun to get the bolts to break loose (if you use red loctite).

Blue loctite is also your friend on this. Never used to until I went to upshift after pulling off the highway and my heel found nothing but air.
