So, bumping this because I have the same issue well documented already here. I swapped for a short shifter but it didn’t make much of any difference—it seems that most of the side to side slop in my 987 is courtesy of racking movement at the linkage pivot shaft as discussed by jakeru and watsongrg.

I tried the aluminum foil trick and it didn’t do that much for me. I think I’m going to try thicker stainless shim stock and see if that makes a difference, or pressing out the bearing.
