One of the first things I change is the shift linkage joints to heim joints. Provides a more positive feel shifting.
Hope you got it back and running again!!

But then again a loose bolt would tear the shlt out of a splined rod.

Good evening all. I have been missing a weekend pizza since changing my diet. Today we were at one of favorite eateries and they offer a Cauliflower crust pizza. I tried one and it was fantastic. Of course not as good as the real thing but still I enjoyed it with a couple of Modelos.
