Default paging BSK or anyone with e-bay short shifter

what the hell are all those loose parts for?!

i know the little plastic clips were for the bottom shift link bushing. but what about the other 2 plastic cylinders, big spring, and how do you keep the ball from moving?? damn they should include instructions with this thing!!

Default how did you keep the ball in place??

and how the hell did you get the top rubber off of the stock one? (the rubber that holds the shift boot in place)

Default the 2 plastic cylinders are to replace the rubber bushings on the shift rail (more)

which is why you have to remove the shift rail as well. I am guessing you have non pushdown reverse. So I dont know if i can really tell you how to keep the ball in place because on my pushdown reverse I had to reuse the plastic pivot. I would guess that you have to use a circlip above the ball to pin it in place but I do not know.
