I have alot of play in my shifter so i was told to replace the linkage. I have the avid shift linkage for the b series swap. i have dropped the short throw and taken the two 12mm bolts out. Now i just need to get the bitch pin out.. any suggestions or tips on making this an easier install??? anything will be much appreciated.

 

BUMPPPP

 

use an 8mm punch, or try this method which hasn't failed me yet. i prefer doing it this way cause i dont like the idea of taking punches or hammers to the shift selector on my transmission.

use the vice to squeeze the bit into the spring pin. This forces it out the other side into the open end of the socket. for more leverage use the vice grips.

 

get the car up real high, be safe and put some jack stands in place, grab a long A/C compressor bolt and beat that pin out like it owes you money

 

Yea just beat it out, i use a door hinge pin from my house works good. once it starts to move it will come right out easy.

 

awesome. thanks for the tips guys..

 

And make sure you get ES bushings.

 

another good one is a chuck for a drill bit.has not let me down in all 8 times i removed the linkages

 

question.. wut kind of shifter linkage do i need to use for my b18c swap with cable tranny

 

Can anyone tell me how to get the bitch pin back in??

 

hammer it back in from the bottom...thats what i do...tap it so its in the hole then give it a nice hit and she pops in the hole lol

 

I did the clamp in reverse....

I hate that "BIATCH PIN".

 

thanks it worked i was almost afraid to mess it up lol

do you know if a 94 integra is obd1????
