Gearbox outer linkage

GEARBOX OUTER LINKAGE

DESCRIPTION

The gearbox outer linkage assembly can be divided into two types depending on the type of gearbox.

For gearboxes with a medium-low pick-up torque for 1.8 - 2.0 T.S. engines, the traditional system of shafts and rods is adopted. For gearboxes with high a pick-up torque for 2.4 V6 engines, a system of control cables has been introduced which, in addition to improving system maintenance, permits a notable reduction in vibration, and a consequent lowering of the noise level when compared to the traditional system. It also improves the characteristics of docility and precision of engagement.
