so i put my steeda tri-ax in a few months ago and since day one it has made this terrible grinding noise in 5th gear.. tonight i finally got tired of it so im goin to pull it out tomorrow.. does anyone have any ideas on what the problem could be.. I know that the short shifters do make noise but it is only in 5th gear and it sounds terrible.. so any help would be appreciated.

thanks

the shifter isnt gonna cause grinding. did you set your stop points correctly?

I know what you are talkin about... its not the trans grinding, its the base of the shifter rattling. I dont know what to tell you or how to solve it, dimebag's pro5.0 does the same thing. It just makes an annoying *** rattle right at the base when your cruising.

The most common fix is to buy an MGW.

was the tri-ax new or used when installed? ...just make sure that the stops are adjusted correctly as stated ^^^

...maybe put the stock shifter back in and see what happens!?

im gonna try adjusting the stops again.. it was new when i bought it. It doesn't make any noise with the stock shifter

5.0 85 GT

Haha that cracked me up, not to hijack this thread but how are hurst short throws for the 4.6s? should i just buy a mgw?

ok it was the adjuster screws.. so now i am happy. and to 5.0 85 i love the tri-ax idk if your not even considering it but i love the thing. The noise was my fault anyways ha thanks for your help everyone
