what is the best way to lubricate the shifter? to be more specific, i'm talking about the point where the "ball" of the shifter and the two plastic holders rub. its been sticky and making squeeky noises lately. <P>and one other shifter question: what exactly is "thread-locker" for the nut on the retainer screw for where the control rod attaches to the bottom of the shifter rod?<P>thanks for the help

for the ball white lythium(sp) greese<P><BR>thread-locker is lock-tight you put it on so the bolt wont losen by itself they sell it at a parts store

kewl. thanks for the info. i'll hit up pep boys tomorrow.

use the white grease

How do u apply the grease and where do i put it?<BR>thanks

u gota remove the center console pieces that cover the shifter. then u gota take off the rubber "ring" thats on top. then pop off the spring and take off the top white ring. put the grease on the ball. btw i have the pacesetter short shifter so i've done it before.
