Is this bolted in the right position? At the front of the hole on the rear mount?



XE in a corsa, reason i ask is im having trouble lining my quickshift up properly as it fouls the steering rack.

Also with the lmf quickshift linkage should i have got a new rod to replace the plastic one that fits onto the ball joints?


Cheers

LMF they think they may have picked the wrong one up off the shelf, so just sent it back and there gunna send another out.

Must be the wrong one as it shouldnt foul the steering rack?!

that's the wrogn hole. should be the one bang in the middle of the mount. also sometimes you need to bed the uppy bit of the car side of th elinkage to make space to stop it hitting the rack

yeah, looks wrong hole, the looks like its slotted in before the hole through the rubber.

the sticky up part of corsa linkage on driver side need bending more straight to stop it catching the rack as said above basically, should have copied and pasted, save me typin, lol

It's one big hole so can be moved to the front of the hole, back or in the middle!

Why did they make the linkage with a bend when it has to be bent back anyway?

the hole you want is just bigger than the bolt, there's no way if you move it to the front or back it would stay there.

mine hit the steering rack also, needed to bend it quite a bit so it would go into 2nd/4th gear, but now works fine, theres plenty of movement in the swivel link part to allow for it. However i'm using the standard linkage.
