If I recall, you put shifter in Neutral, place an alignment pin through the shifter body and adjust the rods accordingly (trans levers in neutral). Then the hard stops, once your are able to actuate the gears. What issues are you having?

The Ram Rod is the best inline shifter out there for OE style gear boxes. I’m not sure how anyone can’t figure out how to downshift one. I’ve got countless miles on the street with one. And I now have one for this car.

I took it out and cut 4 inches out of both the main handle and the thin rod You must have arms like an ape to reach it !!

can’t figure out how to downshift Nobody said "can't" !!! No one in this thread said it, but I’ve heard it so many times I can’t count them all. Crap like you can’t downshift from third to second with an inline shifter and other assorted nonsense. I should have clarified that after I typed it. Another one I’ve heard is it takes two hands to get it in reverse. I never found that to be true. Who knows what these guys are doing...maybe they aren’t adjusted correctly, or with a Ram Rod they don’t have the correct spring for reverse. I’ve never had to use two hands.

[quote=Cab_Burge]I drove one car with one in it, never again What a pain on the street and track Same thing on the Mr. Gasket shifter like it Trying to get it into 1st gear after a burn out and having to back up after the burn out was a real pain, no fun at all Give me the good old Competition Plus every day Ran both of those on the street and strip loved them both. Even used the old 3sp shifter with a separate reverse lever.
