Re: [T3] shifter


When adjusted correctly, the lower part of the shift lever will be straight
up and down in neutral.  That should give you some idea where it will be.
You can unscrew the knob on top of the lever and ad an extension that bends
more back.   I seem to remember years ago seeing something like that for
sale in DB&HVW. I would be easy to make one.
