I have a 1988 3.0, Alpha one that I am changing the shift cable on. I have a service manual and am using it to guide me but my questions are: Do I have to remove the bell housing to get the shift cable bellows off, and if not, how do I get to the clamp so that I can pull out the old cable? This is a new style cable that is threaded in from the outdrive side and I do have the special socket that is required for the job.
Also, the manual says to remove the shift cable from the sleeve (at the shift plate). I removed the 2 set screws but cannot pull the cable out of the sleeve. Should I just cut the cable?
Thanks in adavnce for any info.
