I have a 1973 Ser III. I'm in the process of cleaning up the gear box and have a few questions regarding the shift lever. Years ago when the truck was drivable.. there was alway lots of play in the original SerIII shifter
I was given a Ser II shifter years ago hoping it could possibly solve the "wear" problem I thought I had. After closer examinination, it's clear that the Ser III shifter end is much smaller. It's as though the end is missing all together.
The RN cactlog shows an o-ring that is supposed to be in the metal ball end. Only the Ser II shifter seems to have the correct end to rec'v an O-ring. What' missing here?
also Notice the shifter lever bends. The Ser III shifer (round shifter knob)is bent further back. Is that so it will clear the lower dask pad on the Ser III.? If I use the Ser II shifter.. will it hit the lower dash pad?
Thanks for any insight ... Talbot, Southern Maine
