Those collars slip into the black plastic shifter pieces. They help strengthen up that area so you can tighten down the LH thread nuts nice and tight without breaking or warping the plastic. So put it on the other side of the washer, and make it disappear inside the hole.
Yep, sounds like it. You should have received (4). You could probably source them at your local hardware store.
Does this one work for an LNF? I need to replace mine, accidentally scrapped it. I didn't see an LNF specific one on ZZP.
I have a feeling they sell the upper portion of the bracket (the part that DF replaces) and you need the lower portion of it (the part that bolts to the transmission). Give ZZP a call and ask. If it is both parts, then you can throw away the upper and just use the lower.
I’m stuck. How are y’all getting these to attach? The donor ones were bigger.
Earlier in this chain of post there are some images.
Ahhhh haha thx.
Mine are all right hand threaded. One end of each threaded rod is left hand thread. I think I need to left hand thread rod ends (?)
As said elsewhere, I figured out that I didn't need lefthand rod ends. You reuse the plastic ends under the shifter. Take off the white plastic lock, the push button, and spring, and discard them. On the end of the new rods that are left hand threaded, install LH jam nuts, washers, and spacers. Insert in plastic rod end. This is where the magic begins! Insert a washer and a LF NUT (not a right hand nut! Dont ask!) Inside that little square hole and thread in (backwards) the rod. This is very difficult!! Lots of Patience and swear words are needed. When you have completed both rods, take a break, have a adult beverage. YOU DID GOOD!
needle nose pliers on the inside and wrench on the outside.
Anyone; What's the best way to tighten these little nuts? Nothing I have will fit in there...
