Hello, I just received a short shifting Kit in Mail today with 2 screws, not whats the next step ? I unscrew the 2 bolts in the original shift first, then do I pull the shift stick out ? or ??

Thanks!

If you like it with one shift kit installed, you should try it with two!!! I've been told that these kits can cause gearbox problems, although I'm not sure how. I'm happy with mine.... :D
