So mine is a tailshifter and I just finished replacing all of the bushings in the shifter and the linkage. That took out a lot of slop.

I used this method above to adjust the shifter afterwards and it did improve getting it into first but then noticed that it made it easier to nick reverse when shifting into second, hence my question....

If R and 1st are in the same plane and I have to pull the shifter over to the left against the spring-loaded plate underneath to get 1st, then shouldn't the shift lever move far enough to the right as I shift from 1st to 2nd to be out of the same R-1st plane so that I don't nick reverse? When shifting into 2nd I have released all "left ward" pressure against the spring.

What am I missing? Anything else I can adjust?
