5 speed conversion from auto

Featured Replies

Getting ready to drop my automatic out, and need to get the shifter out. I removed the console, and the four bolts holding the brass plate down, with the shifter down in

the valley.

Of course it won't drop out, I think there maybe a horizontal bolt/pin of some type that might be accessbile from underneath, but I couldn't reach it.

Am I on the right road here? If it is a bolt head (covered in hard to access grease/grime), does this thread out?

Thanks...

I found the nut at the end of the horizontal linkage could be removed and the vertical linkage was withdrawn up through the console. smile.gif

You're lucky. As the torque converter fluid leaked out all over my new jack, I said, "manual trannies forever!".
