Anyway to remove slop from factory Hurst shifter?
Just bought a used factory Hurst shifter and it has some side-to-side slop in it when centered. Is there anyway to adjust this or rebuild it to get rid of the slop?

hurst has replacement/ high-load spring sets. If shimming is required, get a new shifter. Shimming will / can cause more problems than a loose feel. These shifters have no design provision for "shimming".

I have a busted one laying around, it had 2 small pieces where the ball sits break off. It was nice and tight side to side at but limp forward and back. I can ship you the lever and springs if you want to see if they're any better.
