    Hey guys quick question on this shifter handle...Squeezing the handle the whole way in wont shift into all the gears, especially returning into park. Squeezing the handle just a little (say 1/4'' or so) and it slides through every gear. I can always get it in gear without any issues, really just annoying that I need to play with it. What adjustment am I missing?

    I searched but cant find any real answers other than a ton of info on the linkage, but dont think my issue is there, or is it? TH350.

    Trouble I had with my B&M shifter were the holes in the aluminum handle wore out really quick from constant use. They became slightly egged out and wouldn't allow the gate linkage to raise enough to shift into any gear. I made one out of steel and it's been fine for a couple years now.

    May not be your problem but something to look at. Also check out your cable adjustment?

    that shifter is designed for racing,
    you will be happier with a shifter designed for the street.

    I understand your steps, but what exactly is this sequence for?
