Also the lower rubber dust boot and bottom the the shifter may start to interfere with the drive shaft in certain situations.
I would suggest getting the bracket as it is an integral part of the shifter.

If you are correct, then I was mistaken...perhaps you can tell me this:
I replaced my "factory-hurst" with the after-market hurst...seemed to go ok and shift ok...what about brackets, etc. with that combo?
Also I have taken out a stock shifter and it appeared identical in over-all dimenstions to the "factory hurst"...and "bracket" appeared identical.
perhaps I was confused by the photos or whatever...or missed something along the way...your knowledge and assistance would be appreciated. Thanks
