Default stiff shifter

well ive had a B&M short throw shifter for some time now and its always been really really stiff. i really noticed this after feeling how some of my friends hondas/acuras shifted. mine seems like it somewhat binds up when i shift. the shifts are short and precise, but sometimes i cant get into gear very quickly because it binds up or i fear i will go into the wrong gear. when i installed it, i used the provided bushings and lube and followed the helms manual. so today i loosened up where the bottom of the shifter meets the linkage, but no difference. so then i loosened up the part that holds the ball part of the shifter in place, but still no difference. i was just wondering if there was any other way to loosen it up some. thanks
