best shifter and shifter arm for T5
what is the best shifter and shifter arm to install in the t5 for allowing different arms for driving position?
|
As acquired, my CRI came with the stock T5 shifted handle for the 90 Mustang, with its dog leg bend coming rearwards. It was too far back to be comfortable.
When I reinstalled my powertrain, I had one of the "short shift" units on the t5. It sticks up way too far thru the hump cover, about 3inches. So, I switched back to the stock shifter plate. I then tried using the Hurst short straight shift handle for the T5. It is about 6" long. It is a flat plate chrome type of handle. It was, IMHO, a bit too tall and I did not like the look. http://www.clubcobra.com/forums/pict...=18967&thumb=1 So, I ordered a 289 style shifter and boot/trim ring. It is shorter than the Hurst and is straight up. I also got a black ball with the 5 sp diagram on its top. I will run with this config, it is a good height, right position and I think looks more period correct. http://www.clubcobra.com/forums/pict...=20852&thumb=1 Click on images to see them larger. |
