INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1) Raise the vehicle. Use ramps or a jack and jack stands. NEVER work under a vehicle that is supported by the jack.
2) Remove the stock shift knob from inside the vehicle by twisting it counterclockwise.
3) Underneath the car, remove the bolt that attaches the shifter to the shift rod. Move the shift rod out of the way.
4) Remove the two locknuts and the shift ball holder plate. Pull the stock shifter out taking care to not damage the
shift boot inside the car.
5) Inspect the shifter ball seat (plastic piece) and replace if worn or damaged.
6) Rub a small amount of white lithium or synthetic grease around the ball of the JG Edelbrock shifter. Guide the
shifter up into the assembly. Before pushing it all the way in, guide the threaded end through the shifter boot from
inside the vehicle. Make sure that the shifter bend is pointed towards the driver.
7) For Integra’s, use the long (45.5 mm) pin and the
thick and thin aluminum spacers for side
clearance. Lubricate the distance pin with white
lithium or synthetic grease.
8) For Civics, use the short (30.5mm) distance pin with
the washers for side spacers. Lubricate the pin with
white lithium or synthetic grease.
