Just installed my SS + bushings and I love it

The install of the 2 lower bushings was a biatch since space is really limited in that area..I almost dropped one of the bushings For those of you who don't have a vise at home, you can simply get one of these C clapms from Ace Hardware store or Northern Tools for about $6, they may come in handy down the road. It was really simple pushing the blue plastic cup into the SS adapter with it. I did noticed that 5th & 6th gear have a little getting used to shift after the SS install..like I almost couldn't get it in gear, but obviously the travel was shorter, hence why it may take some time to get used to it. Well, that's it.. just wanted to contribute for those of you planning on getting this SS. Took the car for a test drive right after and it really makes a nice diference in the shifter travel. Nice mod to the car
