Default Shift **** came off while I was driving

The vibration of the 350evo short shifter keeps undoing the 4 screws that hold my momo shift **** on the shifter. Does anyone else have this problem with momo or other shift *****? Please recommend a shift **** that will stay put...

OP, try some thread lock glue.

You should've checked to see if this shift **** was BJ tested.

FP, shift **** is an excellent choice. It will screw directly onto your shifter.
I had it and only recently switched to the TK...

I just put a piece of rubber hose between my momo shifter and the bar. That lets the screws actually grab into something and secure the shifter. If you're still worried about it coming off, use some loctite or thread glue as suggested above.

you can either use some loctite or just get a shifter that screws directly on to the post.
