Almost forgot, there was a nut that came with the short-shifter, however, I can't figure out what is for and don't seem to listed on the instructionson its use or installation. Anyone have a clue what its for???

hahaha, okay so it wasn't just me then. I haven't a clue either. Like you said no mention of it in the instructions nor did I come across anything while doing the install that looked like it needed it. It may be for the shoulder-bolt at the base of the shift level but I don't think mine went through far enough to get and threads on it.
Regarding the shifter bracket. Yeah the pivot block is taller and the new bushings on the four corners raise it up as well. I didn't have any problems with the bracket reseating on the new bushings. At first I could feel the bottom of the shift lever dragging on the rubber material right below it but I wiggled the rubber around a bit and tucked it down out of the way.
By retainer clips you mean the two clips that hold the two metal cable guides to the main bracket, yes? May want to check and see if you twisted the guides before you put them back in their slots. I noticed when I was trying to get those damn cilps off that the guides will turn a bit but the seem to have a "natural" point were the cable moves more freely.
