I've done a few of these now and TBH if you can live with it VERY occasionally coming out of 5th when your slowing down towards a roundabout ect then this is the simple way



Standard bit of linkage ...^...




Bent forward linkage so it cleasr the steering rack ...^...

Like I say it's only once in a blue moon it will come out of gear, but this way is simple and quick if you don't have the skills/ time/ welding equipment ect;)

How do you extend the plastic bit?

We were thinking rose joints and some kind of threaded bar?

if its for a redtop conversion you need to make the 'u' part wider and make the connecting bar longer. it can be left and acts as a kinda short shirt :thumbs:

Could anyone show me what you have to do to the linkage for the F20?

Picture below, feel free to use sophisticated software such as paint to show me :wave:

I'm a little unsure from some descriptions...



EDIT: Sorry it's so small
