I have a 1973 K5 blazer, with a LS swap with a 4L60E transmission. I have Dakota Digital gauge cluster. I tried installing a 4 speed shift indicator and I cannot get the shift indicator to line up properly. I have made several attempts to adjust the cable so the shift indicator works but can't get it to align properly thru out all the gears. Does anyone who has this set-up and find a solution?

Can you shift all gears with your column?

Yes, I have a total of 7 shift points on my column. I can shift into every gear with the column. I switched out the gear selector indicator from a 3 speed to a 4 speed but can't get the all the shift points to line up correctly.

Won't get it perfect. Have to live with the best you can get.
