2. Fixing 
(1) Fix the gear lever sleeve onto the 
gear lever’s mechanical structure so that 
its front flange is engaged with the 
control booth. Manually press the flange 
so that the trough is engaged with the

2. Fixing the gear-shifting control 
mechanism 
(1) Jack up the car 
 
(2) Fix the cable assembly through the 
opening on the floor and fix the flexible

selecting and gear-shifting rocker arms 
are connected through a ball head. 
(3) Fix the three-way catalyst heat-
insulating plate (Figure 100).  
 
 
 
(4) Lower the car. 
(5) Fix the gear lever tie rod’s 
connecting head to the bracket and 
fasten with a new retaining clip (Figure 
101).  
(6) Connect the gear lever tie rod and the 
differential gear lever (Figure 101).
