ABSTRACT:
A control linkage for actuating transmission shifts in an articulated tractor having a transmission and operator controls on opposing sides of the articulation axis is disclosed wherein an offset connecting rod is connected to the shift control arm of the transmission which is located proximate to the articulation axis for the tractor. A push/pull cable is detachably connected to the offset connecting arm at a position remote from the shift control arm such that the connection between the push/pull cable and the offset connecting rod is further from the articulation axis than the shift control arm. The rod portion of the push/pull cable is restrained from non-axial movement relative to the sheath portion of the cable by a bracket affixed to the transmission housing.
