   yea man  thats what i need

but hey i could power the house and sell electricity to the power company

[79coyotefrg]

well, the engines fine

i started installing the downey cable conversion on my elocker

i'll post pics later i'm exhausted

needless to say i was NOT impressed

[unclejpl4x4]

so lying in the dirt with a screw driver is better ?

[ninja turtle]

I have the downey cable as well and it really looks simple, i dont see having a problem with it

see what i mean. i could get mine to work great at my house but at as soon as i would get on the trail it was always a no-go. im switching back to electric.

i see what you mean,  i'll be talking to Jim at Downey tomorrow

The cable conversion is very sensitive to adjustment, took a friend of mine a few trips out to get it right. Worked great once he had it adjusted right.

ok, i got the holes drilled in the ifs housing then decided i'd install the cable on the elocker in the truck (this was later deemed a mistake)

here we go








freeze plug in the housing


made some knotches with a grinder in the shift rail so the allen head studs would have something to hang onto



now the kit didnt come with any type of gasket to keep oil from leaking between the alum block "adapter" and the housing, so i made one




using the block and a small hammer with a light touch

[GJToyotabug]

i wanna see more

[79coyotefrg]

after installing i realized the center hole in the "adapter" wasnt bored square to the block

it worked fine when loose, but when tightened it would jam solid





i also realized the stock shock was in the way,  to remedy this i cut the upper can off the shock and mounted it upside down



i also found that sliding the block over the shift adapter then attaching it to the cable before attaching it to the shift rail worked alot easier than twisting the cable to thread it onto the thing



it wasn't difficult to fix the "not square" i just needed to find what the problem was,  I will be in touch with Jim at Downey so this problem gets fixed



a little work with the proper sized stone


and a little taper on this thing,

all helped to make a smooth shifting cable assembly

[baldwookie]

u get it to work?

[79coyotefrg]

i made this little  temporary bracket  to make it work,

well, there it is all tight and secure and WORKING

[unclejpl4x4]

wow thats a whole lots engineering  your a pretty fart smellier glen.

just got flex here now to see if the cable rubs anywhere 

[79coyotefrg]

u get it to work?

yep i did, FINALLY

[79coyotefrg]

i'll be getting a few of those metal mounting clips and some self tapping screws

this cable is fairly long, i thought it would be beside the seat but the shifter will be up close to the SR5 gauges

[unclejpl4x4]

thats long
