Falkeen had done this to his XR8 ute. It should be a straight screw off/screw on job.

yeah they fit... 10mm thread..
but you might need to grind down the stick, as the BA knob is quite long... so have angle grinder ready, or better yet a metal lathe... ;) Last edited by ziggee; 23-06-2006 at 03:04 AM. |

Or you cant unclip the boot, take off the shift lever, cut 4" out of the fat section of the shaft and then weld it back together. Grind it off smooth and then refit, works well and cuts the height down heaps.
Whereas rethreading the shaft can only shorten the shifter approx 1".

I already have a shorter "BPT" stick/leaver which sits at a nice height.
So the manual BA momo gear knob should fit easy as screwing it on with no dramas. Thanks guys.
