I need a shift bar and don't have a jig for keeping things aligned to straighten it. Anyone doing this or selling them?

Ben is the way to go on this one. His work is uncompromised and I can tell you, the slightest tweak in the alignment (for the side shift) will show up. I built a jig, altered 4-shift rods, and played ad infinitum with the rod - not worth it. Do you see those curves. More subtle than the curves on a Vegas Hook....... well, you get the picture

I ended up with a very simple design. It works really well on my car and also @jwinner s car as well as few others.
