Pro-50 Clicking/Feeling Gears Mesh

[Cannons]

I have searched on here but dint find anything. Can someone explain why a Pro-50 Shifter Makes the transmission shift like %$^# compared to the stock one? With the pro, I can feel gears meshing into eachother sometimes, I can kinda hear them too. Sometimes it does it and sometimes it doesnt. With the stock shifter there is no slop in the shifts and it goes into gear perfect each time.

if you still have the rubber isolator from the stock handle, you can reuse half of it to isolate the handle from the shifter and that should take care of the rough and notchy feeling

are you talking about the rubber inside the metal thing around the stock shifter?

Thanks

Its hard to explain but its like the shifter kicks back a couple times on the shifts. Almost as if the clutch wasnt in all the way.

that doesnt sound good....if the clutch doesnt engage most of the time u miss the shift. I had that problem and got a firewall adjuster and quadrant and it fixed the problem.

I have that already and the clutch works fine. What I was saying is "It feels like that situation" Not that it actually is. Its hard to explain a feel and sounds

With Pro 5.0 installed without rubber in handle, shifting should feel notchier but more precise, and require more effort than stock. You can feel what's going on inside the trans (vibration, sliding into gear, etc.) because there's a more direct link to the trans. If it doesn't work better than stock, there's something wrong-- installation problem or clutch not disengaging all the way.

Save all the trouble and buy an MGW. I ditched the tri-ax for one and got it in yesterday. There is no comparison.

(if I remember right) there are two pieces and at least one of them is a metal bracket with the inside lined with rubber... I was only able to use half of it with my Pro 5.0 handle but I put it in between the shifter handle and the shifter base so that the handle is isolated from the base. This eliminated the notchy feeling.

I have a MGW Cobra knob with a Pro 5.0 handle and stock shifter base. The trans shifts great, like cutting butter with a hot knife.

Get some gaskets from Cobrabob they really help with the noise.
