yea you dont need any clips with the blue pivot pin it just goes into place and thats it. I dont know how you guys have so much play in first gear mine is nice and solid in pretty much every gear except when in neutral. however the first gear getting stuck isnt a problem for me so much anymore, you basically have to cut out this whole plastic area in the shifter base and I will take pics once I get around to doing it like when I have alot of time without needing to go somewere lol. then you just break in the shifter for a few miles. it will start to get alot nicer after you break it in.

i fixed my loose cup with 2 o rings, the original let loose so the shifter would slump in the cup, i got 1 size thicker and 1 size thinner O rings i disassembled the top part of the shifter where the o ring goes, i installed the thinner o ring around the cup slightly lower than where the original was to wedge it up to keep the weight from slumping it, i than installed the thicker one in the stock location with the push cap that secures it in place, so in 5 mins and .50 cents i had a brand new shifter lol i got no more than 3/8" of play in the shifter now

yeah i just got mine and installed it today, the pivot pin has a cutout for the c clip but it doesn't come with one which i found a little odd, i just hope it doesn't come out.

Same here, I took a window crank c clip, modified it and made it work. Has been holding up for 2 years.

I got my shifter today and gonna install it in a bit, what part on the shifter do you have to trim???

For the getrag shifter, I don't think you have to remove any material.
Search man, you're gonna get more answers that way than posting in here. And if searching doesn't help you, try starting a new thread.

Fashow69: I installed my Ralco shifter today and I cannot believe how much better it feels vs my stock shifter.

However I ran into an issue that the right shifter cable clip assembly seems to rub on the bottom of the black plastic shifter assembly? Is this the part that I have to trim?

I kept playing around with re-adjusted the cable clip and I got it now so it only rubs slightly going into 3rd and hardly any into 4th. The rest of the gears are fine.

I bought the shifter used in a shifter assembly already. However it seems that the ball part of the shifter is alittle loose and the ball seems to "fall" down in the housing. I saw someone posted about installing O rings to fix the issue. Is that way to fix the ball being somewhat loose? Also how do you install the orings?

Just installed this shifter yesterday. Everything went perfect. Had to file down a small spot under the right linkage, but other that that it's everything I hoped for. I would Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a short throw
