Bill, Syncros have the same adjustment clamp between the front and rear
shift rods as 2WD models. Yes, it is possible to move it less than a
spline or I would not have suggested it. The male end has splines but
the female socket is smooth so this allows infinite adjustment when the
clamp is loosened.
