Default Manual Trans BL

After finally putting my truck back together after the BL, my cupholder housing catches my shifter in 2nd and 4th. Also the shroud around the shifter gets bunched up and makes it so I can't shift into second so I just have it pulled up out of the way for now.

Has anyone else run into this problem? If so, any easy fixes?

Thanks in advance for the replies.

Did you use an extension for the shifter?

Hmmm, that should have corrected that problem. Can you send me a pic of the setup with the shifter and cupholder?
