you have to cut one of the sections and ad a 5mm piece of metal and weld it back together. easier, quicker, more reliable buying on for the job mate

I'm confused.
Mine has been extended by previous owner, I did have 5 gears and no reverse.
I'm not using a spacer on rear mount.
Just been offered linkage that hasnt been extened, but using a short shift, would this do it
