Title: Adjusting spline at the transmission
Post by forrest on 09/01/07 at 17:12:30

In a thread in the Cafe it was mentioned to adjust the spline at the transmission to raise the shifter a couple of notches. How this this done?

Well that is the old way. On the Savage there is a turn buckle between the shift lever and shift shaft. Loosen the lock nuts (one is RH thread and the other LH -look to see which is which) and if you make the turnbuckle longer it will raise the pedal tab. Max

If you look where your shift shaft comes out of the motor it has a splined shaft,on yhat there is a splined arm.Take a sharpie and mark across both pieces,then there is a small pinch bolt remove it slide the arm off of the shaft(may take a little work).Move the arm clock- wise to raise it.Counterclockwise to lower it.Probably just a tooth or 2 either way
