Lokar floor shifter issues c6 trans

I was having some issues with shifting gears(engine not running). I couldn't cycles through the gears very well. After researching, I adjusted the threaded rod to get the least amount of binding possible. Everything feels really good, except park. When I put it back in park, it doesn't feel quite right. Are there any other small adjustments I can make to the shifter? The c6 trans is brand new. Or should I keep playing with the length of the threaded rod....

Have the same shifter in the 1ST-RIDE Lokar w/ a C6 . Ended up making a real shift rod 5/16 rod w/ 2 real hiem joints .What a difference . The threaded rod has too much flex .
