Default Re: Front end problem.

I also experienced the shifter lifting under hard acceleration just after installing beam plates even though C beam bolts were torqued to proper specs. I suspect oil from a leaking transmission rear seal may have had something to do with it. During the seal repair I made sure the C beam mounting surfaces were absolutely clean then roughed up a bit by sandpaper. Put a little extra on the bolt torque during reassembly and haven't experienced any shifter lifting since then.
