Short Shifter help

Hey guys, I just bought a short shifter from Teknotik, and could really use some help installing it.

I am in Oakville and am willing to drive to someone's house + pay if necessary.

Just PM me if you'd like to give me a hand

Thanks

Mike

totally different setup Mandie..
yours is an adaptor, his is a full shift arm.....not something i wanna get involved in as bolts love to break and bushings love to sieze up or turn into brittle over-sized spacers

Its very easy if you even a little mechanically inclined. Do a search. I left a link on how to do it.

how about just telling me what to do, and watch to unscrew, and ill do everything and you just watch?

nobody is liable for anything breaking if im asking for help.

i would actually prefer doing it myself that way i learn for next time.

get access to a lift, it will make the job 10x easier esp wth seized bolts and bushings.

btw are you sure your short shifter doesnt use a metal bushing/bearing? a lot do.
