im very interested in this mod....however i have some ???? if someone has done it or knows
1. on the 3 way to fit the gear knob, i like that he reused the original shifter and just cut it to make it shorter. however it just seams flimsy, i mean if you have to heat up the whole assembly and rip it apart with vise gribs, wouldnt you want to seal the two pieces back together with something? my thoughts would be that its gonna pull off one day driving. but idk. anyone?
2. If you choose to just use the lower part of the shifting assembly, i know ill need to tap it. however is the new base thick enough to tap it back to a stock shift knob thread pitch? he used a 10 x 1.50... i believe the stock is a 12 x 1.50?
If anyone has any more info that would be awesome. i just got my bushings today from driftmotion here in town and would love to do this. thanks
