I was just about ready to put the body back on the rolling chassis of my 66 roadster. We adjusted the shifter (wide ratio Muncie 4 speed) and noticed that the shifter had what appeared to be a little too much side to side play of the shifter shaft in the upper bracket causing the shift to be rough. Took the shifter apart and the shifter shaft to shift lever pocket fit looks OK and the pin to lower bracket OK but the pin to upper bracket appears loose. Upper bracket rocks in the pin. Is this normally where these shifters wear? Before body goes on, I plan to replace the upper bracket and pin in the shifter. A lot easier to repair with body off.
