You can access your selector arm from inside the car........Pull the carpet
back on the passenger side (North American cars) and take off the tunnel
opening cover(the rubber bung) .......You,ll need a 3/8 socket drive with
medium or long extension and a 1/2" socket and a light........Loosen the
bolt on the selector arm and slide your gearshift forward or back to achieve
your desired position.......The proper position is when you have the same
angle from lever to tunnel finisher in 1st gear as you have in reverse to
tunnel finisher...........You must recheck everything after tightening to
see that all gears engage properly since you may have changed the angle
slightly too..........If you look closely in the port you,ll see the arm in
the slots and be able too adjust accordingly...........Double check your
selector arm is in good shape at the bottom and has not worn.......You
should still have the neoprene cover on the selector arm ball............If
not it still works but is very notchy and vaque.......You can get new
selector arms for it
