Aftermarket shifter in a stock console?

You sould only need some bushings to tighten it up. The one on the bracket
that comes offthe tail housing is the one that wears out the worst. If the
linkage from the shifter to the trans is worn. You could wire feed weld the
worn spots or even replace it. The aftermarket has that linkage.
I would not recomend the shifter plater from Duncan Motorsports. I had
it in my stock shifter. It was more of a hassle then it worth.
The stock shifter works very well when set up right.
