[semi-rant] They're alive!!!



I can get to most of them without raising it, even with the strut
bar....it's not fun or easy, but in a pinch I could've. But that wasn't the
problem...

If anyone cares, what wound up being the culprit is the shift linkage arm
that the rubber ball goes into. The bolt that holds the ball to the linkage
fell out. I should have used loc-tite(R). I actually found the ball beside
the road that afternoon.
