I was googln around yesterday and found a post somewhere about a guy who decided after dealing with his unknown rattle issue with his short throw hurst for such a long time to try and put some
White Lithium Grease all around the ball bearing and see what happens. Low and behold he found out that the very annoying rattle in 2nd and 4th gear disappeared. I decided to try this very same concept and went out to buy some of this grease at Lowe's for 4 bucks. Took my shifter cover off, greased the bearing up and then went through all the gears for about 5 mins making sure the grease went in. Well i can tell you that this is a proven method in getting rid of that rattle!

My shifter is silent in every gear, even when punching it..
If you have a hurst short throw in your
stang and cant figure out what is causing the rattle and already made sure all your bolts are tight, try this method and see what happens
Im not taking credit for this at all, just re-posting for all the other hurst lovers out there if they are having the same issue.
I was seriously thinking about getting a different shifter because of this annoying rattle, not anymore..
