Which linkage to use?

[Mieran]

Got these 3 at home, not sure which one to use.

Will be linked to an internal shifter and used on a F18.

Bottom one looks more like a Nova one to me

[Mieran]

I think the top 2 are from a Corsa.

Any advantage of using them instead of a Nova one or would that not make any difference?

[Iain]

It looks different dimensions to the other 2? I'd go for the Nova one so you don't run into clearance problems.

Ok cheers

I'm having endless amount of linkage problems at the moment :(, even after doing the 5mm drill bit method everything is still sloppy and not direct, I have nylon bushes too. When its in gear there is so much left and right movement it feels like its in neutral

The plastic ball joints are probably ruined

I found this and decided to follow the guide and build a Rose jointed one

[Danny s-p]

the top one look like sort shift one

[Iain]

As Edd said rosejoint it and it'll be spot on.

Top two are corsa ones, The plastic bush on th left can be changed and do improve feel. If it was me I would of used the corsa (or cav, whatever) gearlinkage rod end so you can remove the std novas crappy bush thing that always falls off. Shame its too late now as I bet you've chopped and changed the gearstick rod lol.
