Smile Hurst Shifter

I've purchased a Hurst shifter for the ZR-1 and need a little advice on installation of the shifter. I remember seeing a Thread sometime in the past showing how to install it, but can't find it. Any help would be much appreciated.

One, open the box and make sure the bearings are in the shifter. If they are not, let me know and i'll give you the Timkin bearing number to order.

After that, read the instructions and read the FAQ here.

It's really rather simple to do. Just a PITA to get everything out of the way.

There is a write up (with pics) by Johnny "Phrogs" over on that "Other Forum Who Shall Not Be Named".

You will have to cut and paste and edit the link for it to work.
It's obvious what part is missing.

Good luck!

That is the write up I used and everything went great. Johnny also replied to my PMs with helpful hints.

Thanks for the info about checking for bearings. Sure enough mine didn't come with any although the box said it did. Please let me know the Timken numbers

Double check your shifter again - There should be a small needle bearing cage on each side of the shifter body. I just got one from Jeg's - and the bearings are there. I can't see how they would be missing - They are press fit.
