Porsche 987/997 Shift Cable Alignment Tool

Porsche Shift Cable Alignment Tool (986, 996, 987, 997 Manual Transmission) A precision alignment tool designed to correctly center and secure the shift lever during shift cable or shift console installation and removal. This tool locks the shifter in its true neutral, centered position when disconnected from the shift cables. By holding the lever steady, the cables can be clipped into place without preload, ensuring proper left-right and fore-aft shifter travel once reassembled. Correct alignment is critical to smooth, accurate shifting. This tool eliminates guesswork and helps restore factory-correct shifter geometry after service or modification.
