[QUOTE="TheVikingRL, post: 12941533, member: 129239"] Couple of suggestions. The trans will likely loosen up a little as you get more miles on it (did on mine anyway). Would suggest swapping the factory trans fluid out for something a little better. I used Amsoil, but others (Redline, etc.) probably work equally as well. On my car this made a very noticeable difference in shift quality like the issues you described. Third gear is a well know issue, particularly at the top of the RPM range. Most popular solution is to change out the stock shift bracket for something which flexes less (Barton, Steeda, etc.). Ford Racing makes a version of the Barton shifter and bracket if you are concerned about warranty issues. Otherwise the Barton and MGW shifters & bracket are the most common replacements and most people have positive reviews. [/QUOTE]
