Default Hurst Question

Got the new shifter in today. Noticed a little vibration/rattle at higher rpm's. I remember seeing some discussion of this before. What's causing it :confused:

Is it from the "travel stop adjusters?

Did anyone eliminate it? Maybe a little dab of RTV on the ends of the stop screws?

Never could get rid of the noise in mine, that's why it is now in a box in the basement.

That little problem popped up for too me but only with the stock shift ****. The solid billet aluminum unit I have on now is as quiet as can be.

Chris..........thanks for the info :thumbs:
I'll give some of those things a try. Can't imagine how the stock **** with that key could be loose enough to vibrate but I'll go to work to stop it.

I found that a good wrapping of plumbing teflon tape did quiet down the ****, but I never did eliminate the tunnel noise. I did find a plumbing thing that goes in a toilet that would fit on the shifter and seal the hole in the rubber close out boot, but I removed the Hurst prior to trying it so I don't know if it would have worked.
