2. During normal operation, all inserted bushings are subject to the greatest wear. If difficulties arise when shifting gears, then it is necessary to check the bushings of the connectors and cross rods, as well as the ball joints of the lever. Gaps in the connectors cause inaccurate installation of the selector shaft in the gearbox and difficulties in engaging gears.
Before removing the connector or lever, it is necessary to remember their position. Before removing the ball joint, it is necessary to first unfasten the latches.
3. To remove the longitudinal lever from the gear selector lever housing, it is necessary to disassemble the exhaust system.
4. Remove the longitudinal lever with the housing and gear selection lever downwards.
