I'm still getting used to the T56. A lot tighter shift pattern than the T45 in my '99 was. My question: Where does everyone's shifter rest when in neutral? On my T45 w/a Pro50 shifter it rested inline w/3rd & 4th. Push to the left or right and the shifter springs pushed the shifter back inline w/3rd & 4th. Now, on my T56 w/a B&M Pro Ripper it can rest in two positions: inline w3rd & 4th or inline w/fifth & 6th. I understand that w/the T56 there are four lateral positions possible, not just three like on the T45. Does everyone else's shifters do the same thing? I'm especially interested in how the springs work in an MGW shifter for a T56. Any opinions are appreciated.

Mine both sit right in the center between 3 & 4.

Recently a member here had to replace the springs in his MGW T-56 because it would not center. He did a nice write up with pics. (I think it was Huachopito but could be wrong)
