The rest of the kit installed as per instructions.

Probably this:

Swapping out the perrin for the kit mount and bushing eliminated the shifter linkage/driveline collision.

Clocked 50 miles on the shifter post install where I tried hard braking in every gear- acceleration, slamming the bugger in there etc; care was still used to hopefully not break anything

Here's some pics taken with a potato that probably won't convey the point..

TRD Quickshifter and Perrin installed, to confirm I'm not pulling your leg


Ultra-detailed high fidelity breakdown of the issue area


You can barely make out the place where the linkage rod and knuckle of the driveline were rubbing. In person you can most definitely make out the place where they rubbed- bare steel on the rod and little knick of paint off the tip curls of each knuckle

Fully recommend this piece. Confirms what most others who installed it correctly (everyone but myself and @stockysnail apparently haha) have to say about it. Very smooth, OEM feel. Short shifts, smooth and buttery gates.. more force needed, but not excessive.

Will update after a couple thousand miles seat time with it
