I got a question for everyone with the shifter. I've had it in for abotu a year and it's a great shifter. I have it adjusted to the shortest throws (I think it's ten turns), and it has been great. Just today I noticed that while in neutral, the shifter moves foward and back about 1/8"-1/4". I know this has not been the case up until now. I lifted up the boot up and the little clamp/block is very tight on the part coming out of the tranny and the clamp tot he shift **** rod is also very tight. I think the rod coming straight out of the tranny is getting loose. Is this where the shift stop kit comes into play? Anyone else have this happen to them? Hope all this makes sense.

 

I've had mine for over a year too. It's still solid but if I felt some play I would get under car and retighten the linkage as well as checking the handle. I don't see something as well engineered as the MGW having an internal problem. Has to be linkage. Unless a poly bushing has split or something.

 

Hmm alright good suggestion I will get under there and check it out next time i head home for the weekend. Thanks for the suggestion.

 

Re-silicone the ball socket while you in there too

 

yep, get some silicone grease and lube that puppy back up.. my cat is tearing into the cheerio's I've been snacking on and can't figure out what to do with an "o" lol. he wants to eat it bad but can't figure out which one of the 400 he's rescued from the bag tastes good enough for a canivore to eat. cat's kick ***.

 

Haha alright I will keep that in mind thanks again guys. If the bolt on the arm is in fact loose I will make sure to thread lock it again.
