I'm wondering if anyone has a technique for assembling a 4 speed console. I replaced the shifter boot ( MIA as I received the car), securing it from inside the console...with the 4 speed plate also secured from inside the console. The Inland shifter handle secures from under the console...I don't think that it's possible to wrestle the assembled console and pass the lock-out wings of the shifter through, without damaging the boot. I've had the shifter handle apart before and threading the cable through the lock-out wing wasn't a picnic doing it on a work bench...it will be harder in the car. I think that I might have to pull out one of the front seats to maneuvering the console to thread it over a "wingless" shifter handle.
Can it really be that much effort to change a shihter boot? Maybe David Copperfield is a Mopar man.
Any advise, procedure would be appreciated. The book shows it as passing easily through
