Spent Saturday underneath the truck installing my new column shift linkage getting rid of the nightmare the PO owner came up with. I didn't like the 5/16" all thread the kit came with so I sleeved it with some 3/8" stainless steel tubing. All thread stainless tubing and 2 stainless jamb nuts weigh less than 16 OZ. It took me forever fine tuning the linkage to get the indicator pointer dead center of the P R N D 2 1 icons. I replaced the leaking shift shaft seal on the trans while I was at it and I still found a small quarter size puddle under the trans this morning. Grrrrr, I hate leaks! Guess I'm going to have to pull the trans pan and remove the shift shaft and make sure it's completely free of nicks & burs.
