Shifter wobble after Kartboy install ?

Hey guys, what's up

So I installed the Kartboy Short Shifter, Kartboy rear shifter bushing and mtec springs and soon noticed that, although shifts are shorter and smoother, the shifter is now pretty wobbly.. Is it just me that never noticed that before or is it something I haven't thingthened (or wtv how it's spelled) enough ?

Never mind all that, didn't even have time to do anything that @tom@kartboy fixed my problem. I swear, best customer service I've seen. Ever. Period.

Believe it's something to do with bushing after installing all the firmer transmission bits It accentuates the movement.

do you notice a rattle in the shifter around 4k RPM on yours? I'm buying the same package, but with the Whiteline positive shift bushing as well.

when driving the shifter doesn't move at all, there was just some loose in the gear themselves that something made shifting challenging. Still way better than stock
