Shift Control and Shift Rod
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
The shift shaft is connected to a transmission shift rod (1) which contains two sealed universal-style joints, enabling the range of motion necessary in order to shift gears. The shift rod (1) is connected to the transmission shift control (2) which is a lubricated and sealed unit, mounted to the driveline support assembly. The mounting system utilized for the shift control (2) incorporates rubber insulators. The cockpit of the vehicle is isolated from the driveline through the use of a shift control closeout boot which seals off the shift control and the driveline tunnel shift control opening.
