Anyone Interested in the 727/D300 Fix?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I had just about had it with the front d-shaft clearance problem on my truck. I crawled under it yesterday and decided I wasn't comming out without a solution. Well, I got it. I had to clock the d300 down 27*. When you do this it puts the shift rods in a really cramped spot, not allowing for cables. The bracket that holds the shift lever to the shift rods was reworked by cutting the rounded part off and welding a flat piece of metal on it to tie it back together, just allowing room for the rods. After a little grinding to get the corner of the bracket rounded , I can now get 2H AND 4h. By smoking the shift lever with the flame wrench, we multi-bent it to run throught the floorboard and it actually shifts. The d-shaft clears the tranny pan, and I am now stoked.!
. Thats one way to get clearance anyway if any of it will help anyone else.
