now why hasn't anyone done this? of course, now that the cat is out of the bag, there are bound to be clones.
do you 6'4" guys ever get tired of leaning forward every time you shift into 1st/3rd/5th? i know i did. a simple 3" extension of the stock handle converts your shifter into a comfortable AND easier to shift custom unit. easier because the fulcrum point has been lengthened. you can just lay back in the seat, nicely reclined, seat all the way back to the stop, and shift like you always wanted to. the knob travel is not really that big a deal. not a whole lot more than stock, and if you want a bit less travel, just use the extension on a factory short shifter, or convert your miserably firm short shifter that you wish could be easier to shift. i'm not selling them, but they're not difficult to make. you scoff now, but once you try it, you'll never go back. i also heated the handle just below the top of the boot and bent the handle back to the perfect position. impress your friends and terrify your enemies! bound to be as popular as the awesome island valve adjust tool, which i heard is back in production.
