I'm increasingly more annoyed by the stock change rod (13) and the change extension (14), shown in the image below. There's got to be a cleaner, more serviceable, performance way to do the shifting. I find I'm more and more irritated by the little knuckle that goes on the transmission (the one that pin #28 goes through on the image).

Before I make my own and re-invent the wheel, has anybody here scratch built one? Got pics?

I've got an idea in mind and am ready to build one. Just curious if any of you palooka's gave it a shot. Seems like the drag race guys are the most "fab friendly".

 

That funny cause i just ordered #14 and #13 yesterday along with some energy suspension bushing for it. I saw but don't remember where some one did mod it and was suppose to work good. Ill look for the link to it. I wanna say i saw it on FB.

 

I was looking into this...http://www.wickedinnovation.net/prod...ification.html

 

^That's pretty neat.

 

Yeah I like that idea.
I would like to do it myself though.
Damn 135 seems kinda high.
Wonder if they will sell you just the part?

Looks about like it doesnt it

 

Well, glad we are discussing this. that idea is WAY better than the complicated idea I had worked out.

Let's keep discussing.

still interested in shifter ideas.

 

So u think the jegs deal will work.

 

Why wouldn't it? I'm pretty sure it's exactly what they use,just theirs is probably a different brand.

compare the pictures in that thread to the pictures of the jegs joint.

 

Jegs one seems shiner to me.
I know that doesnt make a difference

 

with solid motor mounts you can get rid of the stabilizer bar, i believe davef has did this before with a little modification.

or you can just buy the t1 gforce shifter and call it a day

 

1 of which I have for sale FWIW

But I'd go this route, these cars should have solid mounts in them anyways

 

you can call tony he will probley just sell you the hiem joint u just have to cut and weld it on to your linkage.

 

I would like to know more about this..

 

You can find them online much cheaper too.... not to take money from Tony's family or anything.... lol

 

I was searching around for one and all I can find is the jegs item. What is it called exactly or if someone has a link to a site with better pricing please post it.

 

Called T1, got 1 of each. The transmission nub dealio $30 and the u-joint $60. Rather support Tony than Jegs.

 

post some pics when you get them for us

 

And the transmission stub pieces we make, can't get them from jegs anyways. :p

Thanks for the order, what you're doing will work out great and be very easy to do with the pieces we supply, the stub is designed to fit direct to the joint.

 

You should put them on your site. Lot of folks like to fab for fun. That's me anyway.

"shifter bits". minus, of course, my 10% for being a marketing "jean-yoss"...

 

i'm interested in seeing pics of the pieces that tony sells, i'm less than satisfied with my hasport linkage.

 

I'll get the parts added to the site tomorrow.
