i just got my fc, and i cant shift for **** in it because the gear box feels so sloppy, i shift to second and i gotta click it into place, theres so much play side to side when im in gear that if im not directly in the middle i scratch gears, a short throw shifter kit should fix this right? or do i gotta buy the upper gear box and the short throw shifter seperate?
