Now that's sloppy. lol If your camping in Zuma this weekend bring it along and let me fix that thing for you. At least stop in for a beer and some parts to get you rolling. ;)

Thats typical on those, and its almost impossible to get rid of all of it. They use a linkage system instead of having the shifter mounted to the shaft. I wasfilling in eyelets with weld, and adding homeade bushings, to try to get the slop out of each joint, ands was able to improve it, but a linkage system will never shift like a shifter on the shaft. I can sympathize with how tired it gets lifting your whole leg up to shift each time!
