Angry Installed short shifter...problems!

Ok I installed a short shifter and now it seems like going into gears is harder. It's like you have to push that much harder to get it into a gear.
ANy help?
thanks in advance
Brian

Are you using aftermarket bushings?

You NEED bushings! It will make shifting 1000x smoother, get some!

Re: Installed short shifter...problems!

ok I went to the car to try and describe how it is better...whenever I push the shift lever forward it seems like something is too tight. It's just harder than it should be...it goes into gear fine it just feels tight. What do ya'll think?

Re: Re: Installed short shifter...problems!

Did you follow the install directions?
You have have over tightened, not greased, forgot a piece. Go back & check your work.

Summit Racing has the stabilizer bushings for $10(energy suspension) they should be used with a short shifter, but won't solve your issue.

Which shifter is it?

Re: Installed short shifter...problems!

yea that's the one I followed but it doesn't tell me how much to tighten the bolt that the actual shift lever connects to

don't know if thats the right lingo but by shift lever I mean the part the knob connects to

thanks
