I’m 6’ 4” tall, and shifting into R or first is literally under my right knee. A shorter lever (not a short-shift kit) might help. Anyone else have a solution for this?
Thanks |

6'5" mutant here. Slightly smaller wheel and a JWest eccentric mount that moves the steering wheel up about 20mm did the trick for me. Also helps with being able to view the gauges that the smaller wheel obscures.
