Description

This tool is used to set the shift rod to specifications so that the rod is aligned properly for access to all gears. When your shift rod is not properly aligned, it will be hard to find some gears, or some gears may not be accessible. See the Bentley manual and pictures for use. Can be printed on any printer with any type of filament you like. I did mine with PETG to avoid any warping or shrinking.
