B&M Short Shifter noise

[miklos]

I'm getting a weird vibration noise at certain rpms and when I accelerate. When I hold the shifter arm it stops.
What could it be?

crappy trans mount maybe?

doesnt that happen to all SSs?

[slider2828]

Yes it does happen to all SS. Search for a thread on a fix for that.... which is wrap the counter weight with electrical tap. Counter weight is the hump in the center of the actualy stick...

Mine rattled until I put washer on top of the springs that hold the shifter in place. Remove the round ring from the shifter, you will see the springs I am talking about. Add a couple of washer to make the springs push down harder, it will keep the shifter from rattling. At least it did for me.

yeah they make a bunch of noise at higher rpm's

What he said, more spring tension will quiet the noise a lot.
