Looking at this pic actually gives me more faith in just doing the $20 bushing. Thanks.The rigidity of a component depends not only on the thickness of the material, but also on its profile.
That's why there is something like the i-beam, less weight with good rigidity.
This is exactly how the OEM bracket for the shifter works, the profile in which the "thin" sheet is formed, makes it rigid.
Just take it in your own hands and try to bend it...
The aluminum part from Steeda can do nothing better, except shine beautifully.
The OEM rubber part, on the other hand, is as flabby as a granny hooker.
If you don't want to spend $500 on a shifter, then the $20 PU bushing will do the job.
I'm not ready to replace the shifter yet. Maybe if/when I decide to swap in a Torsen diff that would be a good time to install a MGW also. I remember @shogun32 had some Torsens in his garage, but is a bit of a hike from me lol.
