Hi guys! I´m thinking of replacing the shifter mechanism on my A-833 trans, Can someone please tell me
step by step procedure how to adjust the shifter linkage?

Depends on the shifter. Hurst has a hole you put a 5/16 rod into to align the plates, the you adjust the rods accordingly. An Inland shifter doesn't matter, it'll still be a pain to shift no matter how you adjust the rods. Either way your new shifter will have instructions.

Ok It´s an Hurst shifter, what are the "plates" you refer to?
Yes ok, new shifter =instruktions, thats what i thought.
But please tell me bout the plates.
Thanks Linus

Inside the shifter assembly are plates that the linkages attach to. There is a recess in the top of them for the gear selector to slide across when you move the handle to select a gear. This grove needs to be aligned properly so you can shift gears without interference.
