I was out looking for the source of a recent rattle, I found something better instead. Coming off of the tranny there is a bolt that mounts the shifter linkage before the cluster of bearings and crap. That bolt was allowing about a half inch of play! I tightened it down, and bam! Much less play in the shifter, goes into gear every time from a stop, better then it has ever been. There is no more push and slide into gear crap, clutch would feel a bit funny sometimes to. It either in gear, or not in gear, shifts amazing clutch feels right in every gear despite momentum or not. I feel like I had looked at this before, it has been getting worse so I guess it worked its self out far enough I could distinctively see it being loose.
