I'm thinking along the lines of Sam that the vibration must be huge or the weight of the TRD shifter must be significant for it to have an effect on the selector forks via the selector shafts through the pivot point. Or is it also solid bushed. Maybe some way to fix this would be to preload the detent springs that help keep the selector in gear. I had a Fiat box once that kept dropping out of 4th as the selector was worn from people driving for years with their hands resting on the shifter. When we fixed that I also prelaoded the springs so that it held in gear firmer. Onyl drawback was that it required a firmer shift action to ensure you got it in gear but also gave a firmer tighter feel to the box. Gavin [Report message to a moderator]
