Agree with you 100% I know Forsure it was something that I did. That ball has slipped up the shaft a few times was easy enough out a washer behind it didn’t do it for a long time. Until it slipped down onto the trans. First mistake was messing with the linkage forsure. At the same time I’m glad...
Yeah after uncle gump suggested some machinist blue that’s kinda where my mind was going also that it’s probably has to do with not fully welding the bottom and not being round. Was a temporary fix just to get it home gonna play with it some more and see what i come up with
