Default Skunk2 SS Install!

Well, i just bought myself a nice skunk2 SS, and all i can say is..WHAT A BITCH!!!!!!!!!!! It took almost 3 hrs! VERY VERY little room to work in, and a lot of bolts were REALLY RUSTED, and my car is a 1998! The 2 10mm bolts that hold the ball in the rubber boot were so rusted I had to drill both out and replace them with stainless ones!! I am glad it is over with....i love the new shifter feel tho...Tight, Quick, precise, nice finish!

thanks,
mike

My Skunk2 came with a new main bolt, nylon lock nut, 2 washers and 2 bushings....after pressing the 2 bushings in, was i supposed to put the washers on the outside of the linkage, or inside right next to the bushings?

thanks,
mike
