That pic doesn't help at all

it's just a solid black piece no holes for a mounting bolt? Is the inside round?

A lot of people have this so it might be install error

TWM love! Anyway, I doubt it's faulty. My car was the first time I've ever installed an STS and you'd be surprised.. I mean, I read the directions, didn't understand.. I came here and asked for help, didn't understand.. Read the directions again, didn't understand.. Then fucked with it for a bit and was like - Ohhhhhhh!

should've posted that in the first place

anyways I'd return it if you can I read the review and that guy had the same problem. maybe it's something ARK has a solution for.

read it here http://www.arkspeedracing.com/Chevro...s0411-0500.htm

that black piece is the reverse lock out...should be facing towards 5th and reverse, not first and 2nd. and you have to lift it up to clear the gate.
