Having received some new ball joint fittings for the bellcrank from Allan (Diesel Destroyer), I decided the sun was shining and there's no time like the present, so:-
Jack up the rear of the car, and fit axle strands to secure the car.
Just forwards of the Cat and just to the nearside of centre you'll see this.
This little gizmo translates the movement of the two gear cables into gear changes in the gearbox.
The two ball joints are highlighted above and in this photo from further away.
I also purchased two new cable end boots as the originals had definitely seen better days.
I used a sharp bade to cut away the remnants of the boot and exposed the cable and the fixing.
The cable end is threaded to take the the ball joint and there is a locknut securing the ball joint to the cable.
Using a large flat bladed screwdriver pop the old ball joint cup off the ball.
Using two 10mm open ended spanners hold the locknut steady and undo the rosejoint. This way means that the locknut is retained in the correct position for replacement without fiddling with adjustment. Once you have freed the joint you can wind it off the cable end by hand.
