[C38] Transmission Shift Linkage Bracket

[Alex Ho]

Max,

Thanks a lot for this photo.  Can you get one from the side (where I can see the cable linkage to the shifting lever) if it's not too troublesome?  I want to see how the cable is connected to the shifter.

Thanks,
Alex

Here's a pic from another angle. As Steve said, be very careful with the bolts. I did the same.........
I'm also planning to make mine from 1/8",  it will flex a lot less and won't crack again.

Here is a copy of the original blue print. It does not have measurements but will help in fabricating a new bracket.
Good luck!

PS try adjusting your shifter following the instructions it worked for me. I could not shift out of reverse when the engine was running.

Alex,

Not sure if this photo is stock equipment or if some fabricated it along the way, but it works.   One work of caution if you copy this, when tightening the bolts into the transmission be careful not to strip the threads as I did when working on it.   I had to retap the hole and use a larger bolt.   Read the engine manual  I believe there is a discussion on the proper angle that the cable should be in reference to the shifting lever.

If anyone in the community can provide the dimensions (L x W X D) of the bracket, it would be greatly appreciated.  It does not appear that the part if available anymore.  Any photos would be greatly appreciately for frame of reference to rebuild mine.

Thank you..

It appears that my boat was jury-rigged with a non-original bracket and with some supports.   I am having some shifting problems now and was wondering if someone might know where to order a new bracket that was design for the tranmission?  I believe this is the original HURTH transmission.
