Important:
• Ensure that the control lever is positioned into the mechanical third
or fourth gear prior to removal of the shift lever assembly from the transmission.
The transmission must remain in this state when the shift lever assembly is removed. • When removing the shift lever assembly from the transmission, use the
exposed bolts on the base of the shift lever assembly.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 23 N·m (17 lb ft).
