rdorman,

A few of the guys have recommended using a drill bit to insert in your shifter arms to insure the shifter stays in neutral during the adjustment of your linkages. When I adjsuted mine, I'm pretty sure there would not have been enough room between my Unique transmission tunnel and the shifter to get a drill bit inserted. I used a plastic "L" shaped tool specifically designed for adjusting Hurst shifters. One side is about 2" long and the other is about 1" long just like an allen wrench. I only had enough room to squeeze the 1" side into my shifter so I doubt I could have used a drill bit unless I bent it into an "L" shape first. It still was a little struggle trying to find that hole and to get the tool inserted. That what my girl friend said anyway.
