I have something I need to confess. I have...SSS. Yes that's right Sloppy Shifter Syndrome. I am ashamed to admit it but alas I should come right out and tell you.
I hate it!!!! I have about a foot of play (exageration) in any gear. It's horrible lol.
Also when I am shifting you can hear a distinct sound of metal hitting metal especially from 2 to 3 and 4 to 5. That can't be good. It feels like it's going to fall off or something. You guys think I should do a bushings change asap or should it be ok for a while?
Any input?
Also I think we should star SSS Anonymous...for all those out there afraid to admit they are suffering from this horendous problem.

I found it amusing - worth a chuckle. But anyways the SSS anonymous club would not last because MOST people fix the problem once and never relapse...zombiechow wrote:I have searched...I just thought my post was funny. lol

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
