Hey i got it but 3rd rubs the bushing against the floor panel. it doesnt affect shifting other than that you can feel it and you can see the indent of the plastic panel against the bushing. Its scraping **** off the bushing - is that bad? also 4th is a ***** to get into. why could this be only 4th?? it was made by psywar on tsn. and for $75 bucks I could have gotten better

Have you contacted Psywar about it? Please double check with them and see if they'll right the wrong before you badmouth the person.

couple of washers?????

glad to hear you got it worked out.

when i first put mine in, it took a little getting used to, had problems shifting, now it seems normal....

my biggest problem is the stock shifter knob wants to slide off when i get to really hammering the gears......

later,

baldy

It sort of struck a nerve I guess.

Glad to hear you worked everything out though. Now are you still feeling that your $75 could've been better spent? A little bit of customer service goes a long way.
