Subject:      85 Vanagon - Gearshift Lever Bearing Assembly?
Comments: To: Vanagon@VANAGON.COM
Content-type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Hi,


I have an 85 Vanagon. I just rebuilt the Gearshift Lever Bearing ... but I
do not have a manual ... yet ... the upper end of the Lower Ball half sticks
up above the Gearshift lever bearing housing, and an upper spring is
supposed to fit over it and below the bushing ... my questions are thus...


there are little clips on the upper end of the Lower Ball half... is the
spring supposed to fully fit over these? It appears as if the spring will
eventually break these small appendages... am I being too delicate? Should I
just attach the bushing first and then let it compress the spring to the
level necessary when I adjust the lever?


Thanks for the advice in advance ....
