2g Shifter cable linkage differences

[amcauley]

Does anyone know what the differences are between the shifter linkages for the 95-96, early 97, and late 97 and up are. According to CAPS there are three different parts. The one I need 95-96 MB910538 is no longer being produced by Mitsubishi. I tried all the colorado junkyards without success. Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Andy

What part are you actually talking about?

[amcauley]

The assembly of two cables that run from the shifter to the transmission

[Hal]

The cables themselves?

According to caps, the cables changed along with the shifter internals.

You could upgrade to the shifter & cables from a later model or just snag a set of later model cables from the junk yard and see if they work without changing the shifter.

Now all I have to do is find an AWD 2G.

[Hal]

AWD/FWD should be the same

Go to a Chrysler/Dodge dealership. I had the same thing happen and the same questions a few months back. Chrysler is still making them.

I called them too, they said chrysler stopped making them as well.

I ended up cutting out part of the rod at the end of the cable that connects to the transmission. Then I threaded the rods and used a homemade coupler to reattach them. It shifts even better than it did when I bought it.

[AWDER]

Well, I am glad mine are new now. That sucks that Chrysler stopped making them too. I better be careful with them or see how you did it.
