Trying to identify shift linkage i recieved with swap. Not sure if it is a DEL SOL, CIVIC, OR INTEGRA. Was told integra will work good. Del sol have to cut. Read that the cut is either 3/8 of a inch. Or 2-1/2 inches. Not sure how to determine the length. Just hang it in the interior and take a measurment from center or Neutral, and a dimension to the engagment rods. Just looking for a measurment, SOme one who already did this. Could cut the wrong thing or amount and not even know where to take it from there.


Only pic i really have that i could find. The bushings i installed i took pics of and never thought of the mesuring

 

looks to me like one from a da from the pics. basically you need to cut the linkage have a friend hold it in the proper spot (neutral) in the car and go under and install the other cut end and remove the excess and weld them togeather. hope this helps.

 

Always just cut 2 3/8 out if it

 

So just go with the 2 and 3 8ths..

what if i hang it first, cut both directly in half. Fit the one to the side make mark and re cut/Weld.. Seems like the wrong way to do it but its my logical thinking. Not sure if its proper approach.

 

Clean off all the paint and crap along the straights parts, make a straight line with a marker and cut out the 2 3/8” line the marks back up and weld them together.

 

thanks for the simple, and non abrasive help.
