727 trany shift linkage help...got to fix by weekend..
bottom post is shifter,top of post is kick down.....
what I would do is manually click it until you find neutral (should be able to turn your tire and the drive shaft will spin free) then put the shifter on your column in the neutral position and then hook up your linkage and it should be calibrated correctly from there.
on my cable driven floor mounted shifter I put the shifter in park and the trans in park and I adjusted my cable to those positions and it was adjusted perfect right off the bat.
