But I believe the key is to set the stops with the cover off so you can see what you're doing. I set mine to where it leaves about .030" of play before "bottoming out" and let the dog ring suck the slider in the rest of the way. Haven't had a problem since. Also make sure your shifter rods are running as parallel as possible. Hope this helps
I installed my Long shifter last night and got the rods on when I remembered this thread...this sounds to me like a dumb question, but where are the stops? I don't see anything on the shifter that looks adjustable other than the heims on the rods. I don't want to take this thing to the track for the first time and bust the trans!
