| Post subject: | New linkage for vanagon side shift tranny |
I decided to go with the vanagon tranny in my new build instead of the 091 6 rib because I have had great luck the last 4 years with the one in my old rail. I was thinking I was going to go with the cable shift because I did not have the room for the linkage I bought from Gary at Davis Racing for the old rail. But then I was talking to Ron at weddle and he told me they had a linkage that they were selling that worked great, here are some pics of it. They are selling it for 295.00

A good loose tie rod end would work for that. |

Here is a video of the linkage in action. The rear of the tranny is not bolted down so it is moving a little and the engine is not running so of course it will be even smoother with the engine running.
