The shift linkage goes on that bolt, just like stock. If you haven't been under your car yet, have a look and you'll see exactly how to do it.

the spacer can go on either side, it doesn't matter.

IN!

This shifter is great!!! My previous shifter was a B&M it was nice, but it rattled and was a little short for my taste. I would have to lean into it to shift. This skunk2 is perfect, the double bend puts the *** right where you want it. Shifts are very clean. The throws are a tad longer than the B&M but not noticeable. And the skunk2 *** makes it glide right into gear. I give it

Are there any rattles?

Is there a plastic piece that goes over the shift linkage bolt?

My B&M has the bare bolt going through the shifter.

Wow nice clean car man How does the skunk2 shifter compare to the stock shifter? I love the way my stock shifter shifts but shortening the throws couldn't hurt either.

i think overall the skunk2 is a big imporvment over stock. polyurathane bushings also help a bunch
