Shift Linkage

  1. Loosen rod trunnion jam nuts. Disengage trunnion, and shift rod at bellcrank. Place gearshift lever in "PARK" position. Move valve body lever rearward into park detent.
  2. Adjust shift rod trunnion to obtain free pin fit in the bellcrank arm. Tighten jam nuts. On vehicles with shift lever on the column, make sure linkage is eliminated by pulling down on shift rod and pushing up on outer bellcrank when tightening jam nuts.
  3. Check steering column lock for ease of operation. Check that engine starts in "N" or "P" only. If starter engages in any drive gear, or does not work in "N" or "P", check for proper shift linkage adjustment or faulty neutral safety switch.
