j00 want your b00t like mine?

Give it some time to flex and get some heat on it... mine looked like your at first... now you see what it looks like..

you've gotta tighten the nut against the ****. the nut won't go all the way down and let you line the **** up straight.

 

so i shoudl tighten the **** or the bolt?
what doi tigthen bolt with

 

hold the **** straight, tighten nut against it. i'm forget what size it is.

 

no no no.. I IMed him...

The nut that is under the **** is holding up the boot in his picture. He needs to take the boot back off and take the nut off. Then slide the boot on. then put the nut on and the adjust accordingly


Or at least thats how it looks to me...

 

oh, yeah. i didn't even see that

 

Use a adjustable wrench, but wrap a towel around the nut to prevent maring/scratching it.

 

Wow, now that's TLC!

 

if i remember correctly... the nut is size 12...
i wrapped the nut w/ electrical tape before adjusting it.... it worked good..

 

thanx guys, i got it straighter then it was b/4 i took it off

 

Push down on the ring on the shift boot until it stops, than push a little bit harder and it will lock into place

 

nut size is 14mm

 

can some tell me what size hex nut that is suppose to be used, 12mm or a 14mm?

 

holy back from the dead!

me thinks it is 12mm

 

So 00-01 Shifters are polished? I guess 97-98's are black. Ghey.
