    Thanks for the video on the install, definitely helped me get mine in yesterday. Hardest part for me was just getting the new assembly down the hole lol. Once I got it in i couldn't get the long arm that extends outward into place so I had to lower the transmission a little by loosening the bolts on the transmission support bracket.
    How do you feel about the shifter at this time? Do you feel like it has any sort of break-in period where after a while it smooths out?

    Glad I found this the exact same shifter showed up at my door about 3 days ago from Carroll Shelby and you saved me the trouble of reading the instructions, Just kidding, don't crank the shifter ball all the way down and split it in two they won't cover that anymore. Hope you get your clutch sorted out soon.

    Mr Ry the car guy, is there a water valve on the xterra engine that we have to replace as well? My 06 has an over heating problem and I have replaced the usual cooling system problems. Thanks for the videos, you are a big help.

    Hello brother thanks for the video. I also am having the exact same shifting issue with my 2008 v6. Its "crunchy" and sometimes refuses to go into first and reverse while running. Funnily enough if I give the car some gas while stationery, it will actually shift right into first no problem. Kind of strange that I need to rev the engine while stationary to get into first. Did you figure out what was wrong with your mustang?

    What's the point of an adjustable linkage? Does it shorten/lengthen the throw of the shifts?

    How notchy is this shifter? My friend’s FRS has a super notchy shifter, after feeling it I went and manual swapped my S197. I’ve got the stock shifter on it now but I’m torn between the Barton and mgw

      I got rid of this car a while ago but I remember it being pretty notchy. I would say on a scale of 0 to 10 I would give it a 7.

      @@Rythecarguy Your very welcome. About 4 years ago when you started your channel with the Xterra, you had a patreon page. I gave you $40 and you sent me the t-shirt, "don't replace, repair". I still have it and am so glad you've excelled on your videos and still have a humble approach to your audience. Yup, I'm a fan and your channel has helped me in keeping my Xterra awesome... Have a great new year Ryan!🍵
