The need for help seems to be never ending. I got a piece of 1/4 rod this afternoon to make the Transmission dump valve linkage. When I tried to slide the rod down through the tunnel cover to the lever on the trans I could not find any clear path. The rod is dragging on the trans linkage and a rod that I think goes to the lift. Is this rod supposed to be straight? Maybe a coat hanger is the answer.
