I would also consider a 4 speed or maybe even a 5 speed to give you better mileage with an o/d gear

You first adjust the linkages at the trans, then you loosen a couple bolts on your steering column sleeve. Its on the outside of the firewall. There's a sleeve that has angled slots. When you loosen those bolts, you can turn that sleeve to adjust the slack out of the system.
