Racing application. Who is using a gated shifter? Which one? Do you like it? Is it worth the expense? I've been fighting with shifting issues.. like finding 2nd when looking for 4th. Last episode ended with broken rocker arms. I've adjusted and replaced everything from the shifter to the solid trans mounts. It will do fine and then all of a sudden I've found second instead of 4th which results in a over rev. I have concentrated on my shifting and can't find a correlation to what causes this to happen. Any suggestions would be appriciated.
Thank you David |

I have no problems now that my trans is a 2 speed. The 2/3 shift is a snap, up or down. It works everytime you have the guts to steer one handed. This leads me to believe the problem is in the 'H' crossover during which the shift rod rotates ....too much rotation gets ya the wrong effin gear. The in/out movement is
only about .3 inches between each of the 3 positions at the trans. If I had a solution for this I'd tell ya. J.Wests shift console mod may do the trick....but I aint gonna pony up the bucks he wants for it on a maybe. He can also keep his shifter.....that is a solution to a non-problem.....IMO. |
