Reply to "Shift Linkage Adjustment or clutch drag?"

Marlin I appreciate your suggestions and there are several I will run down.

There didn’t used to be a problem and now there is. It's not like I haven't been able to adjust it to a functional level, it's more a matter of tune and understanding the reason for the linkage coming out of tune. Something has changed or maybe it is just wear. I don’t think it’s an issue internal to the ZF because it works very smoothly and precisely when properly adjusted without the gate hot or cold; like it used to work with the gate. This would still seem to suggest linkage to me. Wear or slop does not appear to be the issue but I will check the guide bearing as suggested just to be sure. I’ll eventually find the culprit. I think I’ll put it up on the lift when it is acting up and observe the linkage motion. In the mean time, though internet troubleshooting can be nebulous, I appreciate everyone’s thoughts on the matter.

Best,
K
