This is what the forum I all about

No problem. I hope it will be helpful, there's not a lot of info about on the early gear linkage.

Awesome! Have replied to your PM. That'll complete my parts list for a full overhaul.
Haynes manual finally arrived today so less annoying questions from now on hopefully.

I've had a Haynes for every Classic car I've ever owned, can't recommend them enough.
They sometimes take a bit of deciphering, but they are invaluable to the serious home mechanic.

This weekend I managed to get all the new linkage parts fitted and have adjusted it all up so gear selection is now sweet as a nut.
Lots of picture and words in the last two posts here. (Not really a "how to", just a dialogue on my photos)
