I’m having a little trouble with shift cable rigging.
As you can see below, I have the cables laying at exactly half of their travel and the ball ends are about 1/2” too far aft to meet the bellcranks (which are rigged vertically right now).
The second picture shows that I’ve scooted the cable sheathing as far forward as I can. (All the threads are forward of the u-bracket.)
I have the transmission side hooked up so that neutral in both controls is exactly lined up with the balls when the cables are at half travel.
If I pull the cables out more up front to reach the bell ranks vertically, it sacrifices motion in one direction in the back by the transmission.
If I hook up the bellcranks as is by leaning them forward, one of the ball ends hits the orange bracket holding the bellcranks and won’t let me shift all the way into reverse.
What am I missing?
Are the shift cables not symmetric?
Are the bellcranks not symmetric?
