Default TKO 600 shifter vibration in 4th
I just swapped from a toploader to a TKO 600.

I took the car for its first real test ride since the swap and noticed quite a bit of shifter vibration in 4th gear while accelerating or at steady cruise. It completely goes away during decel. The same vibration is barely noticeable in the other gears.

No vibration is felt in the seat of my pants. The mirrors don't shake. It is only noticeable in the shifter.

Is this normal for TKOs? This car had no issues with the toploader. The driveshaft was shortened and balanced by a reputable shop. I also swapped Jag 3rd members to go from 3.07 to 3.54 ratio.

What do you all think?
