it's just a precaution as the clamps are so tight i don't think they would move anyway,
are you going to drill the axle and tap it?

I thought that, until my foot slipped off the clutch! Now I have 1/2" square bars welded to the tubes locating into slots in the front clamp sections  |

The rod through the chassis sleve is at the same level as the point of rotation of the original gearstick ball. The upper rod is pivoted, so depressing the gear knowb raises the original stick and vice versa. The pivot arm moves forwards and backwards in tandem with the new gear stick, this provides an extra push pull on the original gear stick. The new gear stick can move up and down.
