manuals not complete

I was excited to get my shop manuals today for my 67 gvan. To my dismay the only thing I really needed was a blowup and breakdown of the shifter linckage at the bottom of the column. I saw a breakdown in one of donnivan"s posts so If Donnie reads this I hope he can tell me were he got the picture.

So what section are you looking for,,,,,,this is a 1st Gen Powerglide lower shift lever assembly,,,,,do you have an automatic or 3 speed,,,,,,you could also have a 4 speed manual  in that van,,,,,,,

a 3 speed...

Thanks Donnie I have the 3 speed I just wanted to see if I could tighten the machanism up a little so I was looking for a breakdown of the assembly

There are plastic bushings  that keep the levers tight in and out,,,,,,there are shims on the inside of the  clamp  to keep the levers from moving up and down on the shaft,,,,

Did you replace the rod bushings at both ends first? You have to fabricate front ones from other bushings, backs can be found.

Thanks guys , exactly what I was looking for.
