Is the kickdown linkage set up right?
Transmission Linkage
“ These springs are incorrect and won't do the job.”
You are smoking dope. I have several thousand miles on my kickdown being sprung exactly like that. The only reason why some kickdown linkages are oriented to be this way or the other. Is some kickdown linkages have a tab tack welded to the side of the rod that allows the direct mounting of a spring. Some linkages, don’t have this tab. Both orientations work perfectly fine. “Won’t do the job ? “ Lol ! As if a spring, stops working. Lol !
