short shifter install

Im thinking of a short shifter and was looking at COBB's adjustable

Any pros and cons ?? with the COBB SS ?

For the install does one have to go under the car.
I dont have my ramps nor my jacks here with me

I was looking at the install video at HSPN

and they went under the car to get a wrench for the reverse gear lockout. but i dont think a 5 speed has that.

pm kingwrex he works as a tech at classic he might be able to help...

 

I have the Kartboy shifter and am very pleased with it. Install was incredibly simple with no need to go under the car at all. The cobb shifter, if I recall, had height adjustability as well. If thats the case, to me, it just looked like one more thing that could wear out...

 

I think you should be able do it.

 

Yeah unless you want to do out all the bushings i don't you'll have any problems.

 

i put my cobb double adj short shift in, was easy and its sweet as hell. i think it took 10 min max
and no i didnt leave my seat except to get the screwdriver n rubber mallet

 

i dont think u need to go under the car, i got me a kartboy shifter and brushings btw the shifter was hard as shyt to do needed a little customizing and then the brushings didn't fit my car so i didn't put them in.,. btw cobb on the other hand is a good shortshifter.. stick with it

 

the install instructions are on the cobb website, easy install and everything I've heard its sweet

 

very easy install. dont even need a mallet if youre tough enough

the only thing i dont like about my cobb ss is that there are too many options for adjusting.

 

the mallets good for if you're lazy
