Thanks. Nice to be able to help keep these fine machines running and looking good.

I kept the first one as a sample since the pin finish wasn't as nice as what I wanted.

They look great! One thing you might consider, is making oversize pins, as the other parts wear.

I could do that. I could drill the mating parts to match oversized pins while keeping the original fasteners. That would keep the linkage tight for better shifts.

The pin for the later triples is larger diameter. I don't know what that dia is but it still uses the same clip.

It would be a good service to do the big pin update and sleeve the shift arm as a package.

my shift linkage is sloppy as heck. i am looking to possibly do a spherical rod end / heim joint mod. i noticed one posting about this. any of you folks got a visual aid? perhaps a quick parts list?
any wisdom?

thanks in advance
