My second gear was grinding !! I thought it was my transmission, I saw this video I give it a shot and it turns out it's exactly what it was all my gears now slide in like butter thank you so much froggy you're the man
I think you forgot to mention that the shifter must be in neutral unless I missed it.
First off Froggy, thank you very much for your "how to" videos. You've been a great source for me more than once as I wrench on my 2001 z/06. I needed a shifter adjustment after I had a new clutch and both master and slave cylinders were installed. I had the dreaded lack of clutch pedal return issue and a heavier spring wouldn't address the real problem which was the slave cylinder. Apparently the shop that did the replacement didn't understand the shifter was not right so I just fixed it myself. I ran into the same issue several others have with the pin not properly dropping. I took the shifter out which allowed me to totally remove the pin. Once I did that, it was easy to align the shaft using a small screwdriver as a guide and the rubber butt of a screwdriver in the shifter socket.

Welcome!
Thanks for the updated video! I am doing this tomorrow and appreciate the info on pulling the pin back out. I was unsure. Awesome videos!

Welcome, not hard. Getting to it is a little more work than the adjustment, I think I have another video on this if you need more. :)
Cam lube(moly grease) is also a great lube for the shifter ball socket. A vendor on Ebay is selling new socket balls for $20 bucks. As of 4/20/2020
Will that pin remove to clean without a problem? Mine is slightly rusted and will not drop down far enough after wire brushing and lubing it well. Thanks much!

Thank you brother and your videos are much appreciated!
Would this apply to an aftermarket shifter like the hurst short shifter ? Also I don’t have that pin since the shifter is aftermarket would I be able to order that from GM?

Sorry I have no way to know how/if the Hurst shifter adjusts. Or if it uses a pin.
👌👌
Thanks Froggy i have a similar issue in my 1985 Corvette with 4+3 Doug Nash box where the shifter needs to be twicked (laterally as i down shift from 3 to 2) lil in order to slide into gear. Does the Doug Nash allow shifter adjusting?
