 Topic: 7040 range cable replacement???
Posted: 03 May 2018 at 9:42pm |
|
I've started to replace the range cable on my 7040. I've got the console end under control but how do you get to that illusive ubolt that holds the cable under the cab? It's a powershift with 3 remotes and has right hand fuel tank set on 30's. Everything is in the way. I appreciate any help.

Reach around the hydraulic valve stack and remove any flow controls that are there. Now, remove the two 1/2' bolts (3/4" wrench) that hold the U-bolt bracket. I always use a long 3/8" drive extension and a wobble socket to remove the U-bolt. You might be able to slide it forward to access from inside the cab floor.

Just fixed mine on 7050 today. Put a lever through floor. Like it better than lever in console. MACK

I always figured the "prototype" 7030/7050 had exactly that....a second shifter thru the floor.

I'm trying to envision a lever coming up 4 inches thru the floor and laying near horizontal under the seat and coming out near the front of the console like an auxiliary transmission shifter on a dump truck ?? There's not much room between the seat and the console for an extra lever.

It's like Dr said. Low enough to swing under leg to go in park. Every thing backwards from console shift. Used a round plate with carpet glued to it that moves with shifter to seal hole in floor. MACK

I got the new cable put in about 2am this morning. I couldn't see those bolts back there. Even had a psrts breakdown and didn't catch it. Thanks for your time and help.

I thought it was a little classier than how this 7030 had been fixed by the previous owner but i guess it still got the job done

that is very similar to the 7030 I seen sell at an auction a few years ago, cept they had put a truck shifter boot on it,, that sorta made it look a little more professional...
