Ya the arms themselves were never removed from the tranny. Only the cables were unbolted and tied out of the way during the swap. With the cables off, the arms are able to move around freely tho, and I believe the pin that is circled ended up being put back underneath the other arm insead of in the center as pictured. Hard to describe, but it's the arm that when the cable is pulled back, it pivots and moves the other shifter arm up and then the other cable moves it forward.
