ok i have an issue that ive been troubleshooting for about 2 years and its the reason that shes parked....
at idle i have no vibration at all but when i can it the shifter vibrates really bad. and it doesnt try to come out of gear at all...
not syncros not harmonic balance and a newer clutch as of 2007 (king Kobra Cutch)
any ideas for a solution to my problem would be awesome.
thanks

Let's try to fine-tune where the vibrations are. Bear with us - you're more familiar with the issue than we are. When the tranny is neutral and you rev the engine, are there any vibrations? Does the whole car shake when the shifter vibrates around? Do the vibrations change depending on the gear you're in?

I had that before. I changed the clutch out and it went away. I just had a wad of clutch dust build up in the pressure plate.

I had this exact problem with the King cobra clutch by any chance did you replace the flywheel or got it resurfaced? Mine issue ended up being the flywheel replaced it with another one and the vibration was gone

I've heard of people switching the bolts on the flywheel around to get it right again. Might want to pull the transmission and have a look at your flywheel and clutch.
