on my 4500, the gates narrowed up alot and the throws are 5-6 inches. No extra stick effort and the feel is very firm and quick. You kinda forget you have a truck transmission!!

Not bad. Got one on my 5600. I like it better than stock, but it is difficult to get into reverse sometimes now.

The lever effort is higher, and I have heard from people with DD clutches that it is even harder to shift, as in not recommended with your clutch.
