How did you set the linkages up, just the same length as the old ones?
Did them fractionally shorter than the standard items just to take out any slack that was in the movement of the gear selectors. Feels perfect now.
If you can, get the car on a ramp to fit them, space is pretty tight on a '6 lump and I certainly wouldn't like to remove and fit linkages lying under the car
Oh yeah, had the car on the ramp yesterday fitting new parts and seeing all was well after the fcs trip and I found this:
[attachment=16701]
It wasn't a hole until I bashed it a bit and wire brushed it clean but looking under the car with a torch noticed a fresh looking patch of underseal and found it to be crusty underneath. The metal around it is still solid, just a 50p sized hole, cleaned it all off for now and coated it in primer, hopefully be able to get it welded this week and change the n/s cv boot that's developed a pinhole since fcs.
