Re: {Chrysler 300} Follow up on shift cable request



The reason it is a joke is pretty clear , there is slop in cable ,and in the push button unit .  they attempt to deal with that by telling you to hold in R button while adjusting, trying to remove slop by taking it to one side  ; however from engineering perspective , on any mechanical thing with tolerance you do better to set at center rather than loaded to one end . Amount of slop is variable 
The neutral switch lets you get it dead in the middle of the rooster comb bump in 10 seconds by observing where it false off — on both sides of bump  not one side . . From under car without a second person . 
I agree you can get there by factory method with two people yellin at each other and 2-3 tries , only to find one  day you find it won’t select R unless you push D first etc etc 
That gets old fast . 
High tolerance for bs , use factory method . no problem here . Often misadjusted as we all know .  
just sayin .

The factory procedure with the wheel type is not a joke. I've used it dozens of times with no problem. The early type may work better by centering in the neutral switch hole.

right — one slides in and out to adjust ( early one )  later has star wheel on thread with bolt holes . Factory manual way to set it is a joke .
I set by put in N , read ohms or test light on starter neutral switch  to ground . come at it from both sides , find exact center of contact made , snug down . has to be perfect on rooster comb

Have attached photo of the rebuilt torqueflight that was supposed to be a '57 but casting # 1854220-2 & date code 4/15/59 indicate 1959 unit.

The connection of push button shift cable to a '57 C vs 59 torqueflight is different. Factory changed the casting feature for how you install cable.

Thanks
