umm my gear stick is sloppy

Post by built4thrashing »

After doin a gearbox swap and a clutch change my gear stick now does 180's. I can still select gears but its not easy as stick moves about heaps.

Is this an easy fix or do i need a new shifter?

need to search sloppy shifter.

bolts probably broken in the top housing.

needs new bolt. take out shifter and you will see a 8-10mm bolt in there or whats left of it.
