cruise control

[Jeff Miller]

Although the downsift Bowden cable will affect the shift points, I
don't believe it will change the torque-converter lockup point.

should be true. I have mine shortened up somewhat to hold gears a
little longer due to our mountianous terrain (read: lots of big
hills that makes Pokey go real slow). Let me know how it works out.

part, the slide arm is part of the transmission kick down/shift
point system. If it has never been attatched, I can't see how your
tranny could have been shifting correctly, so maye this is something
else.
