Pro 5.0 Problems... Little Help??
I had a Pro 5.0 Shifter installed in my car when I got all the work done to my car. I love the way the Pro 5.0 shifts, but under hard acceleration the shifter makes a loud metal on metal rattle/vibration sound. I know more vibration is transmitted into the shifter because it doesn't have a thick rubber boot like the stock Hurst I had on my SS, but can anything be done to quiet the thing down?
It really sounds like *** when it does that. If I hold the shifter firmly while accelerating, it stops, but without holding it firmly it always rattles/vibrates when acclerating quickly.
Has anyone else had this problem? If so, what are some options to fix it?

My Pro5 was popping out of 3rd gear, so I backed the shifter stops out so that they don't contact the shifter. A side effect was that it stopped a lot of the rattle.

Please excuse my ignorance, but is that G2 shift **** a solid piece that threads on or is it one of those universal type *****? My mallory billet **** really cut out a lot of shifter noise in my car. There is still a bit of noise, but the weight of the solid **** seems to have gotten rid of 85 percent of it.
