Angry transmission shop

bought my 89 lx in febuary 04 all stock. first thing i did was put on some cobra R's. ran fine until about a month ago when you had to ride the clutch in reverse so it didnt pop out. about two weeks ago i take it to the transmission shop. they put in a new transmission (clutch to) it fell out of second so they took that out and put in another T-5. i get it home after $2300 and you cant hardly shift unless clutch is to the floor. it was hard to shift before to, i thaugt it was the transmission. could it be the stock shifter? 113,000 miles if it is whats a good shifter to put in it? every day driver/weekend worrior.

Moving this thread to the Windsor Power Forum.

BTW, '89 Mustangs have clutch cables, not hydraulic actuation. Probably misadjusted is all. That or the clutch fork could be bent.
