If you already have JM bushings, i don't see the need for Boogers.

i don't have JM bushings on my maddog but i did install half a set of the boogers ... i have them on my trans locations but not on the shifter ... makes a fair difference but not all that stiff ...

Shit, I just realized JM = JonnyMopar.

I thought JM was the other brand of shifter bushings.

I'll let others comment on that.

I'm running the Maddog 80-2, JM, booger setup. As long as you adjusted the neutral gate as the maddog instrustions suggest, it shouldn't be hard to shift at all.

With the boogers in there, you'll definitely see less play in the shifter while in gear, and "crisper" shifts. I'm pretty sure Jeff will sell ya just two of em.

Heh, you need an avatar, I'm a very visual person, I thought Devil was you for some reason. Ok Ok, I was pre occupied.

err I think it was a 10mm socket. I can't remember specifically, but it was the horizontal bolt to the front of the rod.

If you look on the top pedestal there where the rod meets the shift assembly, you'll see a spring. (In that pic above) Look just down and to the right of the spring, about an 1in on your screen. You'll see the end of a bolt that is going side to side. On the drivers side, you'll notice that it ends in metal slot type things, that is connected to your other shift linkage. This is what you'll want to loosen while shifted into 3rd or 4th. It will move and slide down the grove some, then just retighten.

God, I feel like I'm giving out crappy driving instruction. "When you see a fat guy on the corner take a left, and when you come to a broken car talk to the guy inside, he'll tell ya how to get to the highway"

Really though, its the only bolt which looks like adjusting it will do anything.
