How do you get the shift **** to not be loose? I have removed the blue piece and inserted a rubber thing all the way up and sat it on the metal piece and now its wobbly...and I have 2 types of plastic screws and a allen wrench.

Anyone, know what I need to do next? how to tighten it up and what else?

Are you supposed to cut the one end? I dont want to F anything up either!


Hi, the way I made mine tight was to look for the hole in the center of the gear shaft, there is a small round hole. I positioned by shift **** front hole right on top of it and put the hex screw firmly in that position, once I tightened that piece, I inserted the other 2 hex screws on each side of the shift **** and I got a tight fit.

On your other question, I got a momo shift boot but the key is not to insert the shift boot too much inside, just a 1/4 inch then make sure the silver ring is inserted the same way you took it out (there are grooves that match), I got mine to fit snug but it aint perfect, there is a slight elevation on the silver ring but cant really tell.

Did you shove it up to the top of the shifter shaft or did you cut it and shove the top of the rubber to piece cut to the top of the shaft? and did you use the rubber cylinder to add durability in moving the shifter.

Also did you use the longer hex screws I got 2 sets a smaller set and a bigger set.

I then used the smaller screws in all 3 settings. I dont know what rubber cylinder ur talking about, I did remove the blue plastic piece and inserted the momo shifter directly ontop.

James my questions still remain please.

I also really wanted this done underneath the ring because it would squeak and creak sometimes, so hopefully this should put an end to that.



For those who do this mod with the MOMO: DO NOT push the **** all the way down. Otherwise the **** will sit too low and put pressure on the shifter release button/mechanism so you won't be able to remove the keys from the car. If this happens to you, simply pull the **** upwards a little until you hear a click (that's the button releasing the mechanism) and then you'll be able to pull the keys out. Leave it at that height now.
