stiffen your sticks

now that i have your attention i have a mod for the t20 with laterals that use that channel piece under the plunger adjustment bolt that is a giant pain in my... well you know.
1. take the plunger bolt out
2. throw that channel clip thats under the bolt and throw it away. I did.
3. put the bolt back through the lateral & put fine thread nylon nut on and snug it up against the lateral.
4. screw the bolt back into the plunger. adjust to your liking.
5. i took 2 washers and placed them in between the edge of the bolt head and the lateral side. Slide the keeper pin in and mark were it hits the washer. drill an 1/8" hole there.
6. put the washers back in place between bolt head and lateral side, insert the keeper pin through the lateral and hole in the washers that you drilled. that will do the same as that $%#& channel clip.
That little cheap mod took 95% of the slop out of my sticks. I haven't seen it before so im gonna claim it!

I just finished drilling my lateral "U" channels to 1/4 inch so I can use a 1/4" clevis pin with a cotter pin instead of the original 1/8" snap pin from the factory. That took out a lot of the slop in mine. I'm almost done with my split shifter for the T-20.
