Default Making stock shift **** sit lower?

I'e heard of people drilling out their stock shift **** so it sits lower like the vodoo. Has anyone here done it? I was wondering what kind of plcae to get it done at, machine shop maybe? Also, how much room does it have to work with?

I dont like the other shifters. I like the size and look of stock, but I want it to sit lower. I guess Ill call around and see if anyone will do it.

just buy a voodoo! you know you liked mine

anyway, i'll keep an eye out for a good machine shop in our area.

i would call that hot rod store near my house, or we can just go there. i hear their anti imports, but they do a lot of custom work from what i see when i drive by there.

Take off your stock **** and put it back on without the nut. That makes it sit lower.

You can get it a little lower by cranking down the lock nut a bit, but it's not by much. Beware, if you have the later shift **** with the leather around it, it's not solid all the way to the top like the early all metal ones. You will get to a point where the top piece pops out.

Also there is a taper on the shifter itself, this will limit you going down too far unless you bore out the bottom of your shift **** a little more.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard, and I'm not talking about your grammar?!
