Is the play being discussed from front to back or inline with the shift shaft? Reason I ask is I found my 15 Ultra has a little play inline with the shift shaft and it looks like the shift arm moves and not the whole shaft.

PTAG,

It made a big difference in shifting. Finding neutral was so easy, just a slight movement and click its there from first or second. I completely agree with you that the bolt was never tight from the factory.
