[bigjohnie]

[bigjohnie]

[bigjohnie]

Schaltwegverkürzung = Quick Shift

Hundeknochen = what the Germans use to refer to the MkI i.e. dog bone grille

I'll take you up on that

It's the spacer that fits between the gear lever and gearbox on a 4 speed RS2000 or Mexico Mk2 gearbox, the shiney silver bit spaces the rubber insulator up the lever itself.

[Mr Hoarder]

If it's for your Mk1 rebuild, you need to screw it into the box and then screw your lever into it

The one for a 5 speed is sort of triangular shape & usually made from plastic & has three holes in it to bolt it down.

This is a spacer block for a 4 speed box. It screws into the gearstick thread.
The silver bit sits under the ball on the gearstick altering the pivot point of the gearstick giving you a quick shift stick.

not quite son

Quickshift for the Mk I Escort (dog bone grille) bought it from England (receipt is included), has never been fitted. Fitting instructions are in with the parts. As I no longer own such a car another Mk I driver should have some fun with this kit.

BTW am translator for Mercedes Benz
