• Q: How to Ensure Proper Adjustment and Installation of the Shift Cable on a 2006 Ford Mustang?

  A: The service and repair process of shift cables requires a vehicle in neutral position and hoisted in the air. First remove the selector lever cable from the selector lever before detaching it from the bracket while discarding the clip. Disembark the selector lever cable from the transmission manual lever by first disconnecting it and next removing the two transmission selector lever cable bracket bolts. The section lever cable eyelet gets mounted to the transmission manual lever before reuniting the selector lever cable bracket with its two bolts reaching torque specifications of 28 Nm (20 ft. lbs.). The replacement of a new plastic clip becomes necessary before you put the selector lever cable into the bracket. Finish this operation by installing the selector lever cable into its position and tightening the shift cable adjustment lock. This step secures proper shift cable adjustment.
