C5 shifter slop
Does anyone know how to reduce the slop of a c5 MN6 shifter? I was thinking of either rebuilding the c5 shift box or putting in a c6 shift box.

My suggestion is use the search function. A recent discussion thread is linked below, you'll learn more about the C6 shift box, and some links to bushings you can replace.

I'd go with a Tmod box if I were upgrading mine.

I put an MGW shifter in mine. Never replaced the lower box. Did the Antivenom mod. Never looked back. Still miss that shifter. My C7 shifts fine, but still not as precise as the MGW.
