Slowly gathering more parts;
- 987 Transmission mounts used
- New Sachs clutch for the base 986
- 987 shifter + cables
- New 987 driveshaft flanges, see below;
Also I have some parts to fix the current 2.5 engine. So will complete that first, than sort out the shift linkage of the 0A2 and mount it.
One question on the shift linkage; It seems the 987 uses a stiff spring to prevent accidental engagement of reverse. This spring must be in the transmission and it should be somewhere on the selector shaft. Can anyone confirm that it is the G87.20/21 specific selector shaft that is responsible? Stock Audi transmission doesn't have this, reverse lockout is in the shifter instead.
Just wondering whether it would make sense to insert a new selector shaft or just add the reverse spring in the shift mechanism.
