I greased the white cup. Im talking about the metal spacer that goes under the spring and the white cup. Im thinking it could just be the short shifter, the 350z guys have this metal rattling problem with short shifters as well.

If I'm going to replace the shifter, knob, and boot...do I really need to remove the factory knob or can I just unscrew the boot?

Ok, I studied the pic and I think I can answer my own question. It might be possiblw but extremely difficult as the boot, rubber boot, metal plate, and white cup would all be in place when putting in vise...let alone trying to unbolt plate with all that in the way. Not worth trying the hard way.

Just did this. Great diy. The dust boot is indeed the foreskin of Satan.

Haha! I hear ya. I fitted a b&m couple weeks ago, while I was changing my diff. The “foreskin of Satan” isn’t too bad with the tail shaft removed.
