Default hurst shifter w/ alot of movement

i have 2007 mustang gt with a hurst short throw shifter. it's been on my car for about 3 months and felt perfect, thenjust recently after accelerating when your just coasting there feels like more movement in the shifter then normal. if anyone's got any suggestions i would greatly appreciate it.

Make sure the shifter bolts are not loose(underneath the car)If they are use some blue loctite and that should fix her right up.
