I would love to have a shifter handle like the old Hurst brushed aluminum handles. How are the factory ones held on? Splines? Interference fit? I think I may have to go custom, as Google turned up nothing, but I would like to do something cool with the shift ****. Anyone have any ideas?
The **** is threaded on, and held tight with a jam nut. To get to it, the shift pattern button has to be removed, a small screwdriver and care will do it. The threads are metric.
Found this shift **** on ebay gently used for about $40 shipped. I think it retails for about $70. It looks great and actually its easier to shift into 4WD.
