(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score Oh Noes! FML. I drove around on that for two months; It finally decided to shear at 7:30 in the morning hahaha. I'm pretty sure I didn't tighten it that much, but I guess the evidence suggests otherwise @jbarone, Looks like I'll be ordering a new stud and Hex piece. I could probably find it locally but I'm not sure about the hex piece and really don't feel like fishing the stud out of the current one. For the time being I put the plate off and placed the factory weight back on. Holy Jesus... it feels like I'm driving my father's old '88 Ranger (Or maybe one of the snowplows he works with). If you think the shift plate makes a big difference when you put it on, try taking it off and you'll really appreciate it. I have to keep reminding myself that my transmission is synchronized and I don't have to double shift

| Not Ranked : 0 score So it was loose for months or are you thinking you may have over tightened it? Either way no worries, shoot me a PM with your order # and I'll put another in the mail. Thanks, Jamie |

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score Love it. Can't wait to get the plate back on there. No love for two feet of shifter travel.
