I'm about to buy the MT-82 SHORT THROW SHIFTER for my 13 gt and I was wondering if I should go ahead and get the delux jamnut and washer, or is it even worth it? Also would it be smart to buy an extra handle that fits my old knob just in case, since I'm going to buy the m12 x 1.75 with their black knob?
It just kills me how long they took to pull the money outa my bank. I was checking it daily for weeks worried that I'd accidentally spend some of it and then wouldn't have enough to cover it when it did try to pull. Luckily I refrained form over spending. Lol

Just put my order in right now, and there was no option for PayPal... It was either Visa or MasterCard
Yes, they do. I called MGW to ask if they had a Paypal option and the lady sent me to the StangMods site that was paypal enabled. I have $ in my Paypal account and didnt want to transfer it and wait for it to post, so this was a better option for me.
I have PayPal, but for some reason I already have a bill me later account and owe $186. I've never signed up for it or used it. Last month I got a letter from PayPal saying they sent the amount to a collection agency. All BS.
After signing up for Paypal. I was required to separately sign up for BillMeLater afterward, allowing me to make payments online. In doing that, I chose to separately sign up, and later verify authenticity through 2 account debits, to link my credit union account. Otherwise, I'd have to make payments by mail. Paypal didn't automatically sign me up for BillMeLater too, as it's a subsidiary of Paypal. In your case, I'd question it too. If you didn't specifically sign up for BillMeLater, you shouldn't be responsible for that payment. Sounds like they made a mistake and are now trying to get you to cover it.

Did you purchase anything for $186 on ebay or any other place? One scenario could be if you purchase an item via ebay and pay via paypal and your bank account or paypal account does not have the funds to cover the amount, it would default to bill me later.
Just a thought
Shifter installed today...took 2 hours. Had to get used to 1st to 2nd shift. Maybe i have to adjust it. But other than that its night and day from stocker. Very positive crisp shifts. I used street bushing should i have used the track one? Anyone try both yet? Any difference?
Nice! I adjusted mine as well. The first day I used my baby after the install, it feels like I keep hitting my shoulder at the door jamb in going through the door in 1st and 2nd. Reverse did not lock-up as well. After adjustment, everything is a snap. Shifting is a bliss. Feels like the first time again. Lol
They are just made of different materials that the two posts from the shifter connect to. The track is harder than the street and will produce a little more NVH. It is fine to use either one For DD I chose the street when I did the install just because I wasn't sure how much more noise the track bushing would produce, and I didn't want to have to get back under there and swap it out if it was loud.
I used the street bushing. The track version is really hard and produces more noise. The street bushing will be fine for occasional track use, the track bushing is designed for track only cars. Hope that helps
Have installed two of these shifters. Both needed one full turn of adjustment (counter clockwise). Made all the difference in the world. Easy to do. Just pop of the console, & you can slide the inner boot down to make the adjustment. 10 minutes, tops.
It completely depends in their manufacturing times. It could be 4 days it could be 6 weeks. Your best bet is to call and ask. I got mine I'm 3 weeks from the date I ordered.
Some guys lucked out, I put my order in 3 days ago... Just gonna wait patiently, I already have the Barton with the 2 post which shifts nice, I just wanna get rid of the drivetrain noise... and the updated video MGW made really shows the new upgrades and the awesomeness of the product and very detailed installation process which in the past deterred a bit from getting it in the first place cuz I was a bit intimidated which the process.
I guess...but they had to wait for me to call back monday afternoon to choose a type of handle for their updated shifter and it still came in fast. Im impressed.
Hell yeah. I keep looking down at mine while I'm driving. Lol, it's very distracting, it's so cool.
