Has anyone done this?I'm looking into doing away with the gear rods and changing to bowden cable operation. I know there are a few Peugeots & Citroens that have cable change, but am interested to know how easy a BE3 box would be to adapt? The reason being, that I am looking at the possibility of changing to a sequential shift for next season, but the shifter will only work with a cable operated gearbox. |

easy enough to get a shifter from something like a 307 C4, picasso etc, swap the bits on the gearbox pop a hole in the bulkhead for the cables and make something to bolt the lever down to.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
