Shifter Cable Install guide
STEP 1:
The oem shifter cables are affixed to the
transmission by (2) cotter pins and (2) “c”-
shaped linkage clips. First, remove the
(2) cotter pins with your fingers (Fig 1A).
Next, with a flathead screwdriver pry up
the back side of the “c” shaped linkage
clip (Fig 1B) then pry from the front, twist-
ing the screwdriver (Fig 1C). Once you
have removed both clips you can slide the
endlinks off of the transmission and com-
pletely remove the shifter cables from the
transmission side. Set them aside so they
can be pulled out from the bottom of the
car later. (NOTE: pictured in Fig 1A are
Hybrid Racing shifter cable bushings, the
OEM bushings are rubber and may use a
different style pin to hold them in)
STEP 2:
Using a jack or car hoist you will need to
lift the car high enough off the ground to
get under it. Be sure to use only manufac-
turer approved jacking point and support
locations. NEVER get under a car that is
supported by a jack only!

Installing these shifter cable should take 1-3 hours depending on your experience. If you consider
yourself inexperienced at installs of this nature, you may consider seeking help of an experienced
professional. The guide given below illustrates the necessary installation steps. Steps related to
removing some parts that prohibit access to the shifter cables on the transmission is not included.
Typically, several hose clamps and a few nuts will need to be removed in order to take the intake
piping and filter box out of the engine.
