    Got the Ultima 6 speed in the 98 RK box, new bearing and mainshaft transferred,

    Problem is N switch/light

    Lights up when trans is in first gear

    Switch that came with trans has one post, 98 RK's have two posts and wires

    We transferred the N switch from the stock tranny to the 6 speed cover.

    Any tips?

    Were you able to get the N light to work properly?

    Thanks he'd like for N to come on in N I can just see him at a light in First dumping the clutch thinking the trans is N

    we have those two wires of course, figures.

    Also did you have problems putting the shift drum on>?

    This one was a PIA had to keep moving forks etc to get it to finally settle down on the dowel pins.

    hotroadking,

    haven't heard anything yet. YES, the shift drum was a pain in the a$$ for me. i contributed it to not doing trans work that much and the install sheet was meant for a qualified mec, which i am not. i messed with it untill it dropped into position. also, i had to call it what it was before it would act right.

    Well I think ours probably has a few of the same names LOL

    If you have the install sheet can you scan it and upload here?

    Got it, little blurry on the images, if you can scan and get a decent picture great, if not no problem we'll work through it!

    Thanks that works, also rode it last night works great - except for speedo

    Midwest discontinued selling the recalibration unit but I finally got a tech on the phone and he told me it was the Dakota digital unit.

    So we've ordered those and they have a Neutral switch that is supposed to fix that issue for rev techs but if you hear from your friend let me know what he says.
