1972 Dodge Colt
Working on getting shifter working better.
I have a parts Ram Rod that had the top treads snapped off.
How that happened I have no idea!
Really, I bought it that way, no way I have that much strength in my bad shoulder.
I have a length of grade 8 bolt that I am going to TIG weld to the top.
Then I am going to put a 1 to 2 inch bend in the handle to give me more room on my leg.
The slant is a few inches further back and it puts the trans shifter right on my leg.
This should allow easier shifting in the heat of battle.
I had the t handle turn on the last 1 to 2 shift.
I will have to put a slight bend in the pull up lever also, but it "should" work.
Handle was no good anyway with the short thread so under the knife it goes.
