Howdy folks -
I've got a 1999 Johnson 35hp tiller steer that I'm in the process of changing from long shaft to short shaft. I've pulled the lower unit to swap out the drive shaft and shift rod, but I cannot for the lift of me find where the upper shift rod is connected under the cowling. I've looked through everything I can see, listened, and felt for movement, but I can't find where the linkage connects from the shifter and goes down to the lower unit.
Model number is J35TEL3EEM. Any help is appreciated! As soon as I get the shift linkage pulled, I've got to figure out how to remove the 5" extension housing, and then I can order new parts!
