    You can buy a new linkage like I did Lou, it's less than $100 IIRC. Plus the shifter base bushings and the simple mod to the shifter arm. They all add up.

    I guess my bushings probably weren't bad (they were a PITA to remove). I considered doing the linkage but I think I just need a new shifter or to revive it somehow. I can wiggle the shifter and it doesn't even move the linkage at all, just don't know what to do about it

    Though both under hood, and mount bushings made a difference in mine, the shifter mount ones did have a huge affect in feel. It feels like a tight gated shift now. Add in the Seattle short shifter, and have complete win!

    Help them, for they know not that which they do not know!

    Truth, this is exactly what I have now.
