Default FYI Issues with 12 JKU body lift

Just a heads up for guys looking to do a body lift on a manual trans
All the issues were with the rough country shifter adapter and the inner shifter boot
The problem is around where the bottom of the boot meets the tub
There is not enough clearance between the bottom of the adapter and the and tub and when you shift into 2nd 4th or 6th the pressure pushes the shifter into neutral.
Called rough country where I was told to trim the inner shifter boot. This did nothing to solve the problem.
I had to completely rig something together to make it work. It's not pretty but will do the job.
Had I know this going in I would have just trimmed the fenders for the clearance I needed.
Hope this helps some other unsuspecting manual tranny jk owner
