Default Those with Prothane bushings

Out of curosity, for those of you with prothane bushings in your shift linkages, do you notice a differance in shifting "quality" when it's raining? I have noticed a more rough feel almost as if there is more friction from the water. When it's dry i have no complaints, shifts like a hot knife through butter.

Mine are fine all the time man, I don't think the rain should have anything to do with that.

I will have to crawl under the car and look, I know that the short shifter grazes the exhaust, maybe that has something to do with it......lets see if some more people post on this though.
