I believe it points a little forward and if you back the 2 screws out, rotate the actuator more forward, and then tighten the screws up it will drop the points at which the tranny shifts. Looks like a black plastic doohickey...

    CUCV noise, Blazer vs PU

    Forgot who it was that put some sort of intake on his 1009 and plumbed it into the pass side inner fender but they said the motor was a little quieter. I just did my damnedest to line up my new power steering pump in better alignment w/ the belt and that quieted my noise quotient a tad. Spray...

    Deuce Forum = A Joke!
