Here is how I have mine if you want to try
Once you get 1 through 5 then shorten the left pushrod a 1/2 turn at a time until you have reverse
Adjust both cables all the way out like in the picture on transmission and shifter the same
Couldn’t get picture of cables At shifter (covered up ) by shifter
At first I could either get 1 and 3 not 2 and 4. Then changed adjustments in rear and that reversed .
Removed shifter and changed the adj. Underneath and that solved that problem. Directions given say rockers should be straight up an down in neutral. The other cable (left), was straight up so I left that alone. So not enough travel in this cable. This morning I am going to remove the shifter again and tighten the adjustment on that left cable. Hopefully that will allow me to have all gears.
Note I am missing
parts for the reverse lockout. I thought at first this was why I couldn't get reverse. Now I realize that without these parts I just do not have lock out. It can still shift into all gears. I will just have to be careful not to shift into reverse when shifting. After all, older cars didn't have reverse lockout. We survived! This car is all about bare bones necessity. Mine will start without pushing in the clutch. I wanted it that way! No air bags, no ABS, no radio. Just RAW FUN!
