Also check that the rod going into the gearbox is not wobbling sideways as that will cause a lot of sideways slack in the gear shift. I've got a new bush somewhere ![Wink](http://www.matrasport.dk/forum/Smileys/default/wink.gif) , but the old one is stuck in the gearbox, so I won't be able to do anything about it until I get the box out of the car. Anders And even if the box is out of the car it can be difficult. The latest box I opened I needed hammer and chisel to get it loose. ![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-BNaXvEUWMy0/T2wwfw1RRbI/AAAAAAAAB-s/zGO5qTZ2RAk/s800/P1030302.JPG) Herman

Thank you guys! I've been busy with other modifications and improvements to the car and I have not yet had time to put me into how gear shifting mechanism really works, but now it is this which is in turn of tasks. However, GP, you will generally say that this shift linkage kit is worth the money? If the rod that goes into the gearbox has a lot of slack, what can be done? You mention a bush Anders?
I have access to a fully equipped mechanical workshop and I am a gunsmith by trade so I can produce most of the bushes and parts, if there are things that are difficult / expensive to buy.
(The rebuilding of my vacuum system was so successful as to how the car behaves that I've been very keen on improving ALL the shortcomings of my car. And the only thing that now "inhibit" my love for this little gem of a car, is the gear shift mechanism:-))
Regards Terje

Dear variator, Of cause it will be possible to install the shifter kit in a Murena, if you got the will and the skills. However it does not come cheap, 2400 USD for the base kit plus charges for various accessories, fittings and connections. Further you will have to create an installation kit yourself, the company is supplying installation kits for Corvette, Mustang and the 911, but decently not for the Murena. But please have in mind that you will still have to operate the clutch pedal with your foot.
Hans
