The cable shifter was created to solve a problem ... a problem in the GT40 car hobby. It wasn't originally intended for the Pantera hobby. Although I see that Malin Motors is marketing them for that purpose now. My advice is to speak with Lloyd Butfoy of RBT Transmissions BEFORE you purchase a cable shifter. He has experience with them.

My Pantera shifts buttery smooth, it only takes two fingers to easily move the shift lever from gear to gear ... completely stock shift linkage. So is the likage really the problem? It would be a shame to spend the money on a cable shifter when adjutment and lubrication was all that was required. Or worse yet, to install a cable shifter only to find the transmission continues to shift with difficulty.

Out of curiosity, was your ZF recently serviced, rebuilt or repaired?
