loose rod shifter

[sho4life]

i have solid engine mounts, new front boss brace bushings. its tight to the frame but it clunks. do i need a new replacement ball inside the black box? what else could it be?

Yeah that could be it. Did you check the knuckle/clevis joint that its tight?

Pull the entire shift linkage out of the car so you can inspect it.
If there is play inside the "black box", you can get a replacement from: www.shonutperformance.com

If the play is at the clevis, you can contact jose (the inventor of the SHOrt shifter) on the forum. He has a kit to fix the problem. with a little rigging, you can also fix it yourself with a couple of washers, bushings, and a bolt/nut.

i think it is just from the exhaust rubbing, i'll inspect soon , more important issues right now

SHOSource sells one bushing, SHONut sells the ball and socket, and SHOForum member rktmn sells his bushing and clevis pin.
