    For future reference, the OEM shift lever is still available. I bought one new last winter. Cool video

      You wouldn’t happen to have the gm part # would you? I ordered a lever for the 03+ ZF6 and it was out of stock everywhere in North America. I never found the # for 01-02

    Side Note:
    Always put your trucks trans in neutral before pulling the shifter base. This will assure a no headache alignment when installing the new base.

    How do you like the short throw set up, thinking of swapping my LB7/ZF6 Chevy 3500 dually to a short throw, just recently redone clutch, master and slave cylinders.

      I love how tight it is. I don’t like how much noise it brings into the cab and how much effort R and L now take. I’m going to work on building an improved stock shifter in the future

      @Thundarr995 3 роки тому

      They sell brand new ones for full size GM trucks. I don't think they make them for the S -10 p/u though. I think they're about $50. I've been trying to find a good one for my 97 S10 for awhile. I found a dealer who has a new old stock shifter,but they want $250 for it. I'll live with my old sloppy shifter for that price. I think Hurst may have stopped making the shifter for the NVG 3500. That's what Summit Racing told me anyway.

  • @brycepearson4694

    is that considered a short shifter? and the reverse and 1st gear actually have a safety feature which is why its harder to put it in gear

    • @spankranchgarage
      @spankranchgarage  3 роки тому

      Yes it’s a short throw. The detent for the reverse/low is tight but it’s so tight I have to flex the shifter to get into the gate. It hasn’t gotten any easier after a few thousand miles unfortunately
