Sloppy shifter and shifting. Safe??

[TheronBorslien]

What's up guys, I'm doing and auto to 5 speed swap on my nonturbo 4g63. The shifter can go into gear, but there is no H shape path. I can send a video at 619-609-3113 but what's basically happening is I can put it in first and let go, it slides to third. I'm hoping this wont effect my car if it were to be operable, but good thing it's not there yet. PLEASE HELP! Shoot me a text if you have to

The tranny is hooked up, with cables on n everything, and it does that?

sounds like the shifter bushings might be shot on the shifter base

i would go back and double check everything before i started buying replacement parts. it sounds more like you might have over looked hooking something up or it might have come unhooked/loose.

I took a closer look at the situation. That's a great video by the way. But does anyone know where I can score a good bushing for both of these parts of the shifter? http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=156797&stc=1&d=1369608367 hopefully you can see the photo, but thanks guys for the quick reply
