Reply to "Linkage will not adjust."

Have you taken the shift lever mechanism apart and inspected and lubricated it?

My linkage was beginning to squeak and get 'heavier to shift' at the shift lever under the shift gate. I adjusted the trunion bushing before disassembling the shift lever's mechanism and that fixed it insteaad. It shifts without noise and without friction or drag anymore. I saw a new shift lever for sale on e-Bay, and the photo showed a ball at the other end (hidden end) of the shift lever from the shift knob. I'm just guessing, to give you another idea. I suppose that 'delivery' end needs to be operating in a tight and precision manner, just the same as the control box 'receiving' end needs to be operating properly. It probably should be inspected as part of the diagnosis. Please let everybody know how you fix this. Thanks. Good luck, you'll find it.
