Shifter making a weird sound

If I am in neutral, and I want to shift to 5th or reverse, I get a strange clicking sound. I got no idea what it is. When I am in 4th and gearing to 5th, it is fine but just when I am in neutral and move it to the right it makes a strange sound. anyone know wtf is up with that? Any help appreciated, thanks!

If its tinny clicking noises, its normal. Just your hydro transmission pump.

But if its when you shift to reverse from neutural, and there is a nasty CRAAAAACH noise, its your clutch and reverse engaging like crap. The solution is to shift to 2nd and then reverse, and it engages smoothly.

it is prolly the bushings on the shifter itself..
even try lifing the shifter up to see if the plastic ring has failed..
pickup one of those E/S bushing kits for your shifter, and maybe some shifter bushings (inside the shifter itself) and you should be ok.

I know, but it could be ... HA sport, just released the hydro conversion kit, but I doubted, its the bushings

or if it is a B series swap the linkages/stabilizer bar were crap made and are rubbing on eachother.

I have a B&M short shifter and when I push the shifter to the right and go reverse (before shift into reverse) there is a little vibration, not really clicking. Or it could have been.

It is the bottom of your short shifter touching the exhause pipe. I believe.

It's an OEM shifter, no shortshifter or anything.
How much should I expect to pay for new stab. bushings? New to this ****.
And also, should I just pick up a new shifter while i'm at it, I was going to pick up an SS sometime soon anyways.
Thanks
