How do you line up the gates?
Here is a few pics.
From above it just don't look quite centered.
And this is the bush, it looks alright but not sure

Put a new clutch in this f'ing V6 Vitara and also a new slave cylinder. Now the fucken thing won't go into gear properly. Its like the H pattern for the gearstick is out. Any suggestions? I was thinking a new Bruce rubber for the gearstick and I will put up a pic in a minute cause looking into the gearbox from above doesn't look quite right. Help!! Dave |

Are all the gates lined up so the gearbox is in neutral? |

Pretty sure you need to remove the remote shifter neck to get at the shifter rods. |

And also, how the fuck would it move out of alignment in the first place?? It supposed to be an easy clutch change and ive never had this happen before |

Just went and had a look at mine mate... (this is on a GV but I can't imagine it would be much different). With the gearstick removed mine self centres. If I put it into gear, and then take the gearstick out (which is actually really quite hard to do), it is a royal bastard to re-fit the gearstick again but it is possible with a bit of fiddling. Even when I had put it in gear and removed the gearstick, mine still isn't just off to the side like yours (it is either off to the side and up or down depending on the gear etc). Mine won't select 5th/reverse either unless I have the clutch in - gears just obviously aren't meshed properly where it currently sits. From the sounds of it though you can't even bring the gearstick across to the right let alone select the gears? One of those retaining bolts which hold the gearstick in hasn't been accidentally knocked in or anything?? |

I had a mate drop into work and he said your missing the teflon bush that goes on the end of the knuckle on the end of the gearstick. Its only $5 from suzuki and they are delivering one tomorrow morning. My mate recons they get flogged out and drop into the gearbox all the time. Didnt' see it on there to start with so didnt realise it was missing. Fingers crossed it fixes the fucker otherwise i might just burn it! Dave p.s thanks again for all the help! |

Lucky thats all it was They should be a tight fit on the ball I had to give it a pull to get mine off the other day My slots and pins in the side had worn and the shifter could swing from side to side like 100mm Took em out welded the slot and grind back out nice and tight Welded the bolt and turned it back round Now its all nice and tight like new again |
