Roush Short Shifter rattle

I had a B&M shifter a couple years ago in my vette that rattled.Now I have a rattle in my Roush short shifter in my stang...Anybody got advice how to eliminate this.Turning up the stereo helps and/or keeping my hand on it also helps.It's not a big deal driving in the City but out on the hiway it's more pronounced and aggravating.Any suggestions?BTW this shifter is great to drive with.Very precise.

make sure everything is tight, replace the gastket(mostly to help with water) just recheck everything

I had the roush shifter in my car and pulled it out because of the rattle. roush knows about this, but they will not fix it. I tried tightening everything up, but still rattled. pull it out and get the saleen adapter or the pro 5.0.

Another option is to go with another shifter. I've got a MGW and it is the best shifter I've ever had. It is quite and has a lot of adjustment. Well worth it.

RE: Roush Short Shifter rattle

Thankyou for your replies.I was going to ask a mechanic at the dealership (to doublecheck it.Lately my reverse has been trickier to engage)at my next oil change Tuesday...
