[QUOTE="bmxburner, post: 596994, member: 21340"] How did you get on? Found these other instructions; [URL]http://shop.vintagespeed.com.tw/core/media/media.nl?id=14938&c=3504492&h=d917b4fbf192a71724ae&_xt=.pdf[/URL] I've also had issues. I had an empi trigger shifter, then got hold of a used vintage speed (original stainless shaft version). I could never get VS setup well, it was "sloppy", waving about even when in gear. I got in touch with VS, who were really good, and they sent me a part to add to the base that would tighten it up a bit. It didn't work though. Tightening enough to make a difference, it wasn't then possible to pull up into reverse. Speaking to VS, they then replaced the whole unit with a newer, redesigned, model (titanium shaft like instructions above). This is better, but I'm still not impressed with the amount of side to side play in the shaft. [/QUOTE]
