Recently purchased my 2007 GT that came with a hurst short throw shifter. Everything had been great for about 2 weeks. Now there is a ton of play in the linkage. I've never worked on a short throw kit before, but it looks to me that there is a bracket or something completely missing that would hold everything tight in place.
Pictures show a threaded bolt attached to nothing, and a threaded hole without a bolt.

First video is while in-gear and driving

You are missing the adjustable stop bolt

If you go to the Hurst web page and look a a new shifter, yours looks pretty much the same to me with the exception of the adjuster bolt. Could be a broken bushing on the shifter rail or heaven forbid, something in the trans.

That will do it. I'm surprised it worked at all. Thanks for letting us know. I would also install that limiter bolt while you are at it.
