Can someone help me with the Hurst linkage setup for a toploader? I have had the tranny out for a while and I failed to take note of how it was hooked-up before. A buddy looked at the inside to do a visual inspect and the connections at the tranny have changed.

There is a (1/4"?) hole in all the levers on the Hurst shifter. Insert a drill bit or something through them all to keep them stationary, then all 3 gear selectors on the Toploader in neutral, and there will be just one way the 3 linkage rods can fit.
At least that's how I recall it....

Just a reminder because it's easy to forget(I should know). The stationary ends go to the transmission and the adjustable knob type end goes to the shifter.
