Re: SmartCraft Controls
lol.....those are really nice controls bud......wow.
I think you already know all this stuff im about to post.....and your question is brand specific......but here goes any how
It looks like the port side cover comes off.
If you pull the cap off the pivot point of the handle and un screw the bolt in there.....and undo the screw on the cover....you might be able to get at the base mounts.
If not.....I regularly go into the console from another point....ie..ill take out the gauge panel and stick my hand thru the hole to un do the mounting bolts on the plate of the shift console.
The other thing...is I don't understand tighten tension???....the cables don't really work like that....the adjustment is for the distance between the mounting point and the cable thru pin. a good cable wont have tension in the movement.
this is a side mount control.........different ......but the same....lol
the cable end
this is a pic of the barrel that screws to the shaft of the cable.....the barel fits in to the end of the shift housing....this is the only adjustment.
this is the clip that screws into the base of the mount
and the clip that holds the cable stationary into the mount to the cable end can freely move.
the cover that holds the whole shabang in place
the assembled unit
