Default Those of you with ITR knock-off shift *****

I just got mine last Fri, and I just tried to put it on. But it only screws down a few turns and then it won't go anymore. Did you guys have to saw some of the shifter off?

If you're using the nut that came with it throw it away and just screw the **** on. If you arent using the nut then i don't know what to tell you.

I've never heard of that from ITR knock offs.... Did you have your OEM shift on there before the wannabe ITR one? If so, what kind of shifter do you have on your car...

The reason that I ask is because if you have an aftermarket short shifter and you had the stock plastic shift ****... and now the ITR shift **** won't go on the shifter, then your problem is the threading on your short shifter. The reason you didn't notice before with the oem **** is because the threading is made out of plastic and you could screw it - and eventually re-thread the the **** unknowingly. That's actually what skunk2 told me when I purchased their short shifter...

Go to a hardware store and purchase some lock-tite... that stuff'll keep that **** right in place.

try tearing little bits of paper, wadding them up, and then stuffing them into the top of the threads on the ****. this will let you adjust how high/low you need it, and still be able to screw it down plenty tight. not exactly the fanciest fix, but it works darn well.
