There is a good write-up on how-to in the 101 projects book.
It's more like one good paragraph . I guess it's just that simple.

From 101
"The procedure for adjusting the shifter is simple. Reattach the shift coupler to the transmission, but keep the clamped end of the shifter rod very loose. With the transmission in first gear, place the shifter into the upper left hand corner of the shift pattern. Now, clamp down on the shift coupler. The shift assembly should be properly adjusted into position, and the shifter should cleanly lock into all gears including reverse. However, depending on transmissions, chassis, and linkages, this doesn't always work on the first try."

I know I need hex keys, but what clamps are they talking about?
