Reply to "Shift Linakage setup procedure"

One thing that has not been mentioned here is the "play" in the in the console shifter mechanism that can build up over time. Back ~2001 when I was getting ZONKEY back together I found that, after I put the shifter gate plate back on, I could get reverse or 5th gear but not both. It may have been due to the slightly different geometry due to my 4.6L Cobra conversion or the PPC stainless shifter rod that uses a spherical rod end as the "SHIFT ROD CENTER SUPPORT" (which had a very small amount of free play). Anyway, Wilkinson had a "kit" at the time that replaced parts 18 and 19 (http://www.panterasbywilkinson.com/2016/ill10a.html) in this diagram. It completely solved the problem. BTW, ZONKEY had about 100K on the clock at the time.
