Maveric Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 hey yall remember my post a short while ago looking for a shifter knob? well i got one from that guy and when i went to take the old knob off, it sheered the shifter rod clean off at the screw base!! :cry: so my question is two fold, how hard is it to replace the shifter rod? and is anyone parting out a manual mj/xj with a rod that'll work? i need one now...
CWLONGSHOT Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 Time for an UPGRADE!! :D Hurst and B&M make replacement shifters for the AX 5/15. (I cannot see what you have, thinking maybe BA10 :oops: ) I have one on my TJ. AWESOME shifting, very close and tight shifts. it slike a litttle sports car now!!! Other options would be the JY. Easy swap too. CW
Maveric Posted September 12, 2008 Author Posted September 12, 2008 so i can't just replace the rod? it only sheered right where the screw base of the knob goes (so i can't screw the new knob on there) it'll still shift its just shorter, and i don't know what transmission is in the '88 i know its a five speed...
Eagle Posted September 13, 2008 Posted September 13, 2008 Why not just rethread the rod that's there?
Geonovast Posted September 13, 2008 Posted September 13, 2008 I have a BA 10/5 shifter sitting around that you can have for a couple bucks.
Maveric Posted September 13, 2008 Author Posted September 13, 2008 no body really answers the one main question, how hard is it to install another rod? as for the rod, couple bucks eh? pm me with details
