Why don't you expend your energy on coming up with a short shifter instead?!?!?!?!


Looks good but by the time you have finished it seems that you have defeated your whole purpose.....

 

..........

 

It looks great but it looks like it lost a lot of weight since you first made it and the weight was what you were wanting.

 

o.... it was way to much before....it actually works/shifts a lot better with this newer style
the first one was stupid big like 4.5 lbs

 

having it to big.....wouldn't that ruin the ol getrag i mean the getrag sucks period it doesnt need any help gettin worse

 

btw mine shifterknob is really light.....all aluminum and does anyone else have a "bent in the middle" shifter stick?

 

i run an 8-ball shift **** and love it,my pix have too many kb's and cant figure out how to change them,anybody wanna help?

 

It just might push the Getrag-heap over the edge, but fortunately Mark's installed one on the shifter of his G56 - which is a stout tranny Mercedes has been using in the medium truck market for several years.

 

OK Scooter - if you don't have XP Tweak UI - then you don't have the right-click menu's Image Resizer option.

Don't leave home (page) without it!

BTW - it's a freebie

 

sorry ,i'm a truck driver (caveman) not a programmer

 

Don't feel bad - I'm just a Neanderthal with too many degrees.

As long as we have opposable thumbs and the ability to reason, we're good to go!

- now, if I only had that extra thigh muscle....

 

Is this what you're talking about? I heated it with an oxy/acetylene torch, and bent it in a vice. Ended up welding in about a 6" piece of 5/8" stock as well, to get the heighth back. The whole project started because the stock shifter hit the Geno's cupholder after I added the custom subwoofer enclosure (center seat).

Bringing this back from the dead, any updates? My clutch has slowed my shifts considerably, wouldn't mind this at all.

 

Ditto. I couldn't dare race anyone with my current setup. Almost makes me wish I'd have gotten an auto. I can't physically move my arm fast enough if I were to race.
