UPDATE
I took mine off to make one for IKER(I owe him one) and my wife got all mad cause I put the stock **** back on...she told me she hates the stock **** and that the truck hardly shifts now with it on there I guess if my wife can tell that much difference it must be a big difference
it does make a BIG difference in the shifts..I have really enjoyed it.

I dropped the **** off at the machine shop for a quote...the quote was for 10 total but two quotes with and without shift patterns!!!!


the only problem with shift pattern is I would have to do a set screw so you could line it up......


what do you all want???
yes to shift pattern and set screw???
or no keep it clean???
keep in mind the set screw and and cnc shift pattern will cost more $$
hopefully they get back with me in a day or so.......
let me know what you think..........

My vote is for clean! Any idea what there going to end up costing? Oh and you can probably add me to the list for a couple.

Sorry Lary I did not even realize it was turning into a group buy till you said that but that's exactly what it was...... sorry....Since we would have never known about the ***** without DTR and as a way to support the site I got together with Lary and he has allowed me to sell these in the DTR store to you guys who would like one...I took the **** in and got quotes...the problem is the rust and the coating options...I don't like the idea of powder coating cause it may chip or wear through and I have the same fear with a clear coat finish......so I decided to have the ***** machined out of stainless steel instaed of mild steel....the cost of the **** goes up some but since there is no need to powder coat them it kinda offsets the price some....
SO IN ABOUT THE MIDDLE OF DECEMBER THE ***** WILL BE DONE AND READY TO BUY IN THE DTR STORE...The price will be $96.00 shipped anywhere in the USA....some of you my think this is spendy but when you see the machine work and the just plain huge size of this **** you will see where the price comes from...it weighs 2.2lbs!!!!!!and is made from 304SS......a ricer **** that weighs half this amount made from the same material is $110 without shipping....so I think it is a great price for a **** that actually makes for a smoother shift AND looks great too
should have about 8 ***** in the first run.....2 will have shift patterns even tho nobody wanted them at first.....but I thought I would try 2 so you guys could see them in real life......

hahah it is a little cold at first....just slide a kids sock over it till the truck warms up inside!!!

they should look just like the one in this thread..except for the 2 with the G56 shift pattern...the pattern will be close to the same as the factory numbers.

Mark, Have you thought about doing a "jr." for the T-case as well I'd love to have one of your weighted shift ***** but I'd also like the two ***** to match.

Yeah a matching set would be cool but the t-case **** would need the pattern too. I know the patterns I just think it looks closer to factory and cleaner with them on there. I can't belive more people choose no pattern. Is that some kind of trick to make certain the better half doesn't ever want to try and learn how to drive your truck?
