Engine off and:
in neutral, the gear shift knob wobbles back and forth sideways 3 1/2".
in granny gear, 1".
in 4th gear, 1 1/2".
Mine doesn't seem excessive. It shifts just fine.
1948 3/4-Ton 5-Window Flatbed Chevrolet 34 Years. Now with a '61 261, 848 head, Rochester Monojet carb, SM420 4-speed, 4.10 rear, dual reservoir MC, Bendix up front, 235/85R16 tires, 12-volt w/alternator, electric wipers and a modern radio in the glove box.
