It wasn't as easy as just turning the nuts in both end to adjust it. I had to remove the bolt and nut with the spacer on top of the rod.

I then had to disassemble 2 more times, shortening back the rod until I got it just right where it can click in forward and reverse gears 
I couldn't really test it out because it's 11pm and don't want to disturb the neighbors, but the little I tried in the garage seems like it's working. Will test further tomorrow! Thank you! |
Happy I could help.
Those things are a pain. They're not designed to break the nuts loose and adjust like a turn buckle or tie rod. You have to remove one end or the other. I'm surprised it doesn't have enough play in the shifter to allow a quick adjust. Seems the newer stuff may require fine tuning like a high-end machine. I'm happy you have made progress. Good luck with the trial run.
