My stick swivels clockwise if pushed hard trying to got into reverse or first. If you swivel it back it kinda holds into a better position. If you are real nice to it this doesn't happen. Suggestions? It moves maybe an inch to the left. Maybe 15 degrees.

If I'm reading this correctly, the rod is held into the ball at the bottom with adhesive. Epoxy. I had to separate the pieces to install a short shift. Heat the lower piece with a torch and it will come apart. Clean both pieces and JB weld together.

Ha . . . Learned something new today. I had assumed the ball was machined and a press fit to shift lever.

Just cleaned grease off a shift lever and sure enough, it looks like some adhesive is there at the top of the ball.
