So I got my tri-ax today in the mail. I was going through the package and checking the instructions, where it tells me I have to unbolt the d/s... Why?

Do I really NEED to unbolt the D/S? I don't remember doing it on the TR3650 in my Mach 1 when I did the tri-ax installed many moons ago....

PS I did multiple searches on the forum, can't seem to find this information anywhere allready ><

dlazrael,

Taking the driveshaft off isn't mandatory, but it's definitely a lot easier! Otherwise, it's pretty tricky to get the whole shifter in through the center console. If I were you, I'd just drop the driveshaft real quick and get the job done on jack stands, otherwise the job will be a lot more stressful.

Hopefully someone can comment with a little trick they use to get the shifter through the drivetrain tunnel with little effort!

It's way easier to do a shifter install with the driveshaft out. Otherwise, you're working blind on some of the linkage.

I was asking cause my driveway is dirt... harder to put the car up Rather not have to take it to the DIY shop on Andrews and rent a bay

Gotta get the car in the air to do the shifter regardless of whether or not you pull the driveshaft.
