Well been "goofin" around and finally got around to adjusting the trans linkage and found some of the trouble we have been having, seems ol bigfoot has been steppin on the cable when getting in causing a kink in the cable so after straightening out da cable decided it was time to do a little cabin repair wa'la foot rests to help keep us off the shit on the floor.........
