what exactly does sloppy mean? My shifter used to have a free play of like 3 inch before it'd actually go anywhere, then one day it just didn't shift anymore. Found out that the pin connecting the shift linkage to the tranny was crush because of my destructive shifting so the pin popped out. I replaced it with a bolt and worx good again :)

if you tranny doesn't shift smoothly you might wanna change your tranny fluid.
