I bought a chrome handle Hurst billet plus a while back and I've had a few problems with it. First, the bottom bolt that held the actual stick to the sjifter back completely out (not fun). Now the shift stop bolt somehow screwed it self in, therefore preventing me from getting into any top gears. It's a simple fix, I just need to dump loctite all over it, but I want to know if anyone else is having this problem with theirs.
Not trying to bash Hurst, I love the feel of this shifter and plan on keeping it.

Seems like you should have used loctite on the install - that is hardly a Hurst problem but an install FU. The stop bolts do nothing except give the problem you had- back them way the hell off and glue them there.

Been thinkin about it, so where should I adjust the stop bolts to? Surely they're there for something. And if not then that would be a design flaw
