next time you should wait until the weekend to work on your car that way you dont have to rush.

Make sure you apply some grease. the one from the stock shifter ball works fine. Then you would need to familiarize yourself with a tool called a rubber malet. It will fix your problem.

oh, and BTW, I installed my short shifter in about 5 minutes. easy peezy

True but i thought it would be easy and I wouldnt have any problems.

an adjustable SS seems rather useless, cause how often are you really gonna go in there and adjust it?
