Quaife Shifter Linkage

[Randy Folsom]

Hoping someone has guidance for a shifter and linkage that works with the Quaife Transaxle in an RCR40. I tried Olthoff’s with the ZF shifter provided by RCR. I managed to get the push pull to work but had to cut the shifter shaft on the Quaife, so might need to replace it. There is no way that the shaft rotation is going to work with the parts provided by Olthoff combined with the ZF shifter from RCR as far as I can tell.

I searched the interweb and this site. No joy.

Hang in there Randy. I'm sure there is someone that has this issue figured out. Did the outside of the trans case webbing change as I seen there was needed massaging.

Rods or cable shifter linkage?

The shifter the ZF cable shifter from RCR.

I notched the webbing. I also made a new cable retainer mount to get more downward angle so I could connect the cable lower on the rotation lever. Unfortunately, that causes the cable to point upward into the header collectors.
