65-69 Shift Lever Seals + Shims
GEARSHIFT CONTROL ASSEMBLY
Whenever excessive looseness of the floor shift tower is
experienced, or at any time a shift mechanism is disassembled for
service, the following information may be used to select the proper
shim pack for the shift tower and floor pan.
Shim Stack Selection
Remove the shift housing trim cover on Corsa models by removing
the two cross-recess head screws and the shift lever knob. Provide
access to the shift tower by disengaging the carpet and moving It
out of the way.
1. Remove the front underbody tunnel cover.
2. Remove four nuts from the underside of the floor shift unit.
3. Lift the entire shift lever assembly upward to dis engage it
from the shifter tube pocket and floor pan.
NOTE: A hard plastic seal with shouldered stud holes (upper
seal) should be on top of the floor pan, and a flat hard
plastic lower seal should be between the shifter tube bracket
and the underside of the floor pan. Retain these seals and
any stamped steel shim plates for possible reinstallation.
4. Obtain a micrometer measurement of the floor pan
thickness at all four sides of the opening. Compare the
average measurement to the "Dimension A" column In the
following chart to determine what lower seal is to be used
and what quantity of steel shim plates, if any, are required.
Dimension A
Lower Seal Shim
White Green Black Steel
.090 – .104 1 2
.105 - .118 1 1
.119 - .133 1
.134 - .147 1
.148 - .161 1 3
.162 - .178 1 2
.179 - .193 1 1
.194 - .209 1
After selecting the proper lower seal and shim stock, coat all surfaces of the seals and shims with
white grease. Assemble shims (if any) over the shoulders of the upper seal and install this pack on
the upper surface of the floor pan. Insert the correct lower seal between the shifter tube bracket
and under surface of the floor pan. The entire shift assembly to slide on the floor pan in reaction to
powertrain movement. Reinstall all other previously removed components.
