Hey Scott, how's it going? I might consider something as time & money wasting as heim joints for my own car... This one's for a dollar conscious customer and as long as it's reasonable, I do as requested.

Originally posted by Bradness: Evan: Yes I got the message from Dan. I'm willing to try your suggestion out, but attempting to get the adjustment procedure worked out so I'm certain that I'm doing all the required steps in the correct sequence. I fumbled around on the weekend without having any info. and that was a total waste of time.
Basically all I need is confirmation of which colour cable connector goes on which cable. They are supposed to be different colours aren't they?
To all the others here who've contributed valuable advice-thanks.
The white cable end goes to the outside lever on the trans. By outside, I mean the one more to the left side of the car. The black cable end goes to the other lever. That's assuming that whatever you have has the same colors as mine.
I had the best luck with trying to make the adjustment with an assistant in the car, holding the stick in the position I determined to be the proper place for neutral.

Jim: Thanks-you've confirmed that what I've been trying all along has been correct. Cables and ends were installed correctly. The black connector was jammed because it was cracked. When I attempted to release it, it broke in to a couple of pieces.
