Shiftknob Woes

[Comanche County]

I epoxied mine. It's lasted 6 years but I kinda wish I hadn't cause I can't replace my cracked shift boot now. It won't stretch over the knob without tearing. I guess i could heat up the shift rod and melt the epoxy but haven't gotten around to it yet.

I epoxied mine and it lasted maybe a week.

 

I use OEM shift knobs from the 2000 XJ and the TJ Wranglers.

Just go full hick, like I did... :wrench:

Shifter on the column as done the same thing, so I replaced it with a cheap 8 ball shift knob but it had wrong fitment and feel stupid.

 

Thinking about trying bullet casing. any ideas on what to do

I had purchase an "OEM" from either Quadra or Morris - $10.  It broke with in a few months.  Now it spins like a top on the post.  I should have saved my $$. 

 

I like the feel and look of the original.  All the others people have don't appeal to me.  No offence.

 

I have a CJ and do like the look and feel of that.  But, I am hesitant to repeat the same mistake from Q and M.

 

I ve tried looking at auto parts stores and Wally World.  Let's just say, I am not their target customer with their selection.

I think your best bet would be to find a used CJ/YJ shift knob.  The one I bought is off of flea-bay and is a replica with a similar design to the OEM MJ knob I used to have.  It's only a matter of time before it meets the same fate.
