STEP 3. Push the cable anchor tab
flush to the rear of the shifter body.
Align the 17/64" cable flange hole with
the 9/32" hole in the shifter body. Be
sure to use the hole directly above the
large cable access hole. Install the
supplied 1/4" bolt from the outside of
the shifter body through cable mount-
ing flange until the bolt sticks through
to the inside of the shifter body. Place
the supplied 1/4" washer over the ex-
posed threads on the inside, then thread
on the 1/4" nut and tighten (See Photo
#3).
STEP 4. Temporarily reinstall the side
cover with the center screw only. This
is to insure that the gate plate and the
mechanism does not move from the
inside of the shifter body. You are now
ready to locate your B&M Magnum
Grip Street Bandit Shifter in your
vehicle.

INSTALLING THE B&M MAGNUM

GRIP STREET BANDIT SHIFTER

INTO YOUR VEHICLE

STEP 5. With the driver sitting in the
vehicle, find the best location that al-
lows the driver full range of motion to
easily work the shifter through the
entire shift pattern, Park to Low gear.
(Read the section on HOW TO OP-
ERATE YOUR B&M MAGNUM GRIP
STREET BANDIT SHIFTER). The two
slotted holes at the bottom of the
shifter body are designed for mounting
tabs access from the supplied mount-
ing bracket. The bracket tabs should
slip up inside the slotted holes.
Be sure when choosing your shifter
mounting location you route the
shifter cable where it can be easily
looped through the vehicle without
binding or kinking. Most impor-
tantly, it is critical not to crush, bind
or kink the shifter cable as it exits
the rear of the shifter body. Poor
cable routing will result in improper
shifter operation and potential
cable damage.
STEP 6. The B&M Magnum Grip
Street Bandit Shifter is designed to
bring the cable to the transmission
from the back of the transmission (See
Figure #1). Install the mounting bracket
in the vehicle (mounting holes of the
bracket should be hidden underneath

bolts. (Figure #2 shows the dimension

STEP 7. Carefully remove the single
screw that is temporarily holding the
cover in place. With the mounting bracket
installed in the vehicle, slip the shifter
body over the top of the tabs. Make sure
that your tabs do not interfere with any of
the internal mechanism components.
STEP 8. Install the supplied 5/16" x 3/4"
countersunk bolts through the counter-

sunk mounting holes from the out-
side of the shifter body and through
the holes in the mounting bracket
tabs. From inside of the shifter body,
place the supplied 5/16" nyloc nuts
onto the bolts and tighten. This will
clamp the mounting bracket tabs to
the shifter body. Be sure not to move
the internal shifter mechanism or the
gate plate while the cover is off.
STEP 9. Reinstall the side cover
with all five screws and tighten. Once
