It's just under your shifter.

 

i have actually had the bolts come lose on my 2000.....just a thought,if you had not checked them.

 

yeah i just pulled the center coNsole and it was the freakin bolts so i put some blue lock tight on them and its much better now.... anyone have suggestions for a good short throw shifter and stick? trying to keep it low and quick

The lock-tite works but was a PITA for me when I had to remove the stick. I went to Nord Lock washers: http://www.nord-lock.com/ which also do the job with no mess.

 

just ordered mine tonight so lets see how this improves the shifts..
