MANUAL OWNERS: Show me your less-than stock shifters

[1low95GMC]

Yes. Think about the straight-line distance you move the shifter from the top of the pattern to the bottom, 1st to 2nd for example. Now, if you install this shifter, that straight-line distance will be reduced by 20%.

Ohhhhh OK

The shorter throw just means I'll destroy my synchros even quicker.

Me too!

Pics of the mod itself? 120d bracket. Aftermarket or made by you?

 

[low4x4]

had the shifter on for 5 years.....made the bracket myself, out of 3-1/8 inch peices of steel....bolted together with the handle. and the top peice from the shifter...total holes were three....

here's a really old pic of my less than stock shifter stick on my less than stock transmission:

that was with the T handle on it, but I've pulled that off for a smaller/lighter ball....I eventually will build a small 'console' type thing for the boot to bolt to a little cleaner. since this pic was taken I've also removed the gear selector on the auto column and put a manual column cover on it, and a few other things....
