dkg520 501 #1 Posted September 9, 2017 I have a 1975 C-160 8 speed manual. I want to install a new lift cable but I can't figure out how to sperate the body sheet metal from the top of the transmission to slide the lift cable into the groove. I removed the two bolts on top of the transmission but that didn't help. Has anyone else done this that may have the answers? Thank you in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

charging10 231 #4 Posted September 10, 2017 recently i installed a cable with two shackles on my c100 8 speed, i loosened 8 bolts ,two on top of trans,two holding plate beneath shifters, four bolts closest to running boards on steering tower, i pried up with large screwdriver on left side and wedged a piece of steel 1/2 thick to keep in up position, then run a straight wire through with a little hook on end, latch on and pulled cable through, this worked for me .
