Re: Need Some Help Understanding How A Cable Shifter Works

Hi Bill
Two cables. The shift input shaft needs to be turned by one cable, and extended retracted by the other cable. Using the kit supplied by Fran, A spool shaped device is attached to the shaft. The outside of the spool has extensions allowing for attachment of the cable for rotation. The other cable attaches to a 90 degree bell crank. A roller on the bell crank fits inside the spool for extension and retraction. I am not sure which cable connects to the fore/aft and left/right of the shifter, However we should be able to determine this by rotating the shaft and observing the result. My trany remains has not been installed yet so I will check it later today an get back to you.
