Are you sure you got the 2024 Steeda spring? My install looked just like their instructions.
It was the right part number on the packaging, but I don't think it is. Thank you for confirming it is the wrong one

Is it installed yet? Looking forward to hearing back as i want to order the same!
Just got finished and took it for a drive. Night and day difference! I could tell the minute I went from 1st to 2nd, there was a going to be a massive difference. Slop is gone, nice and tight, sits an inch lower and feels a lot more comfortable shifting. I've got an aftermarket aluminum shift knob, that fit right back on just fine. Just have to adjust the locking nut down far enough that you can get it lined up to your liking. Reviews on Steeda's website stating they had an issue going from 3rd to 2nd, not a problem here.

Recommend 10 out of 10 times, do it!

Mine installed without any shifting problems. The only issue I had was 2 of the threaded holes were tight. I had to run a tap in the threads to clean them out then all was great. Took me about 3 hours without removing the driveshaft. Very easy just take your time

What are your initial thoughts driving with it?

It has a positive shift feel, when you put it in gear, it feels like it’s in gear. No more slop on the shifter when you push and pull, you feel more connected. You hear a little noise at shifting, but it sounds more like the transmission is working. I installed a H pipe so the little bit of noise is not a big deal.

Agree with and have an H pipe as well. So much better than stock
