| Not Ranked : 0 score @jbarone Installed the SE shift knob you sent. I gotta say, I'm finally very happy with how the shifter feels. Even with an SSP, ford syn fluid, rmm, counter weight and base bushings,it was still felt notchy and hard to get into gear at times. But now, it's very smooth. Great improvement. I won't be looking into the TWM full replacement shifter anymore, I'm content. P.S. I will plasti dip it though.. have it look more stock like. I'll post a pic of it when I do.. It's not a big deal for me right now. |

| Not Ranked : 0 score I put in my huge spherical today. To make it tighter against the shift boot at the bottom, I cut one of my stock shifter bushings and put a small piece on top of the shift boot before I installed the knob. Perfect! This thing feels amazing. Ribbed for her pleasure. My pleasure? Crappatalking on my big-ass phone.

| Not Ranked : 0 score @jbarone; have you considered making these shift knobs without the grooves in them? I've tried a couple local's who have them and aren't a fan with or without the o-rings.

| Not Ranked : 0 score Would be great if you didn't need an adapter to screw in, definetely needs an o ring or something to make it tighter as it comes loose pretty easy on hard shift. My powdercoating has all chipped away on top and the shift sticker has come loose but otherwise it's good. |
