That's really weird that it wouldn't install correctly. My steeda/Ford Racing STS went in like a dream. Maybe they shortened the pivot a bit too much and your cars tolerances are outside the capabilities of the shifter. Or maybe the shift linkages need to be adjusted. I know that was a common problem with the MTX-75 5 speed tranny in the standard focus. Good luck with the install. Nate.

Yep guys, sry i didnt post the outcome. I took it to my buddies shop in schererville and we had to make some minor moddifications to it and it works great now. The manufacture called me last week and asked what i had done to fix it and then they appoligized for it. They said that they were thinking about sending it back to have it redezigned. i donno :dunno:. other than the install problem it is a very good shifter
