B& M shifter?

I have a B&M Megashifter and it is kind of rough puting it into park or reverse. Any ideas what I can do to smooth things up? I've tried using lithium grease, it works for a little while than gets rough again.
HELP PLEASE????? Thanks

You might check the cable adjustment.It's a start.If it is fairly new it will just need to loosen up.I'v had mine for a few years now and it's fine.It was a PITA to shift when I first installed it.But it is fun as hell to knock that thing into the next gear.

did u use the stock cable that came with it and u had to loop it on the trans? Order a 2 foot or 3 foot instead of the 6 foot...i found that loop is what makes it do it.
