Search this forum this category all forums for All words Any words Whole Phrase (search options) Auto Repair Home>> Automotive Repair>> Transmission Problems 96dakotamag New User May 2, 2007, 9:11 AM Post #1 of 3 (1898 views) Shifter Movement Sign In I own a 1996 dodge dakota v6 mag, with a 5-speed manual tranmission. It's a great truck, but right now i am having problems with it. I don't know much about transmissions or stuff, so i would like some help. My shifter moves (kicks) to the right in 1st and 2nd gear when the rpms start to rise. I can't stop it from moving, so is it the gears too? Just the clutch? Any help would be great Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator May 3, 2007, 7:49 AM Post #2 of 3 (1887 views) Re: Shifter Movement Sign In This could be bad motor mount(s) or trans mount(s) allowing too much motion. I think the shifter is directly into the transmission so it would move some normally and lots more if the trans/engine are tilting a bit too far. Mounts may look good with vehicle at rest. Kinda needs to be looked at with vehicle under load while stationary. Hit back for a safe way to do that if you want to check that yourself if that sounds like a possibility, T 96dakotamag New User May 10, 2007, 7:04 AM Post #3 of 3 (1871 views) Re: Shifter Movement Sign In Hey thanks. I checked it out and thats what it was. Both the motor mounts and the trans mounts had to be replaced. They must've never been tight since i bought the truck, 'cause now it has a lot more torque in the lower gears.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
