Title: comp plus shifter linkage
Post by: fryedaddy on January 08, 2021, 10:43:01 PM

does anyone have a clear picture of the linkage rod ends on a toploader 4 speed in a 66-67 comet-fairlane.the instructions i got with a new shifter you cant tell 100% how the rods hookup.it may be simple to most,but i want to get it as good as i can. thanks.

Will this picture work? I also have the original 1970 instructions somewhere if it is any better. This is during mockup, but the rods are still attatched to the same side of the levers on the trans and shifter. Only difference is my spacers.

Some actual Comp Plus rods pictured here. As Jared pointed out on his trans the orientation is the same.

I notice Jared has some super sexy cover on that toploader. Probably engineered to shave a tenth off in the quarter. Looks cool!
