I was missing my cap on my shifter. So my fav wrecker delivers to me, and got a new cap sent. However it seems like it's missing a ring? But he says no... before I have to grind the cap what am I missing?

This is as far as it sits.

Maybe there are broken off pieces of the old cap in there still?

Thanks for that I'll go try it.

Hmmm interesting.

Ok I went and checked it, and it seems like there might be 2 different cap styles.

See on mine these tabs only fit on the outside of the shifter.



And they hit on this part..

I guess I'll just grind it. Just weird

Also damn my truck needs a cleaning

Stupid question, but have you tried rotating it in different positions?

Yeah, take a dremel to the "fins" that are sticking inside of the hole, cut till it fits. Do it a little at a time, and it should fit very snug and not rattle.

Stangconv

Yup same all the way around.

Cut and glue I guess. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something before I go a grinding!

You don't need to glue. Take your time with the tabs, make it a snug fit, and the other clips should still clip in. No rattle, and it won't fall off.
