The stiffener goes on the outside. The new HD bracket is not well depicted in our pictures. We need to update the photos. Otherwise the bracket installation is as shown in the manual and there is only one way to install it. Line it up with the clutch cover holes and you will see.

it is for reinforcement , you don't need to worry about attaching it to anything.

So you have a kit with a left bracket stiffener and your right bracket is bending?

I wonder if europorsche914 has the aluminum tie bracket? That stiffens up the works nicely.

Tomorrow Jim and I can post some of the picts of the stuff we are talking about. The tie bracket is shown in the picture at the bottom of page 11:

Shifter Kit Install Manual

The left bracket is shown on page 9 amongst others.

Here are some shots of the bracket with the reinforced left bracket in another thread. We have had this stiffener on 200+ brackets now.
