Default Shift **** Thread Pattern - 6 Speed

After reviewing several posts regarding shift **** replacements, I still have yet to find what the thread pattern is.

Does anyone know what the thread pattern is in a 6 speed?

Thanks,
Eric

Hello Eric,
I hand built my shift **** for my 6 speed, and I'm not sure as to what thread pattern you are refering to.
There is a retaining nut on the bottom of the OEM ****, but it does'nt thread onto the actual shifter shaft. You loosen that from the ****, and the **** pulls up and off from the shaft. Be careful of the leather boot.
Hope this helps, smallfry

Here's a link to when I did mine....I hope https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...hift-****.html

Well, I can't seem to get the link to work. If you go to the "Interior" page, and go to the #3 page in the history, about 1/2 way down you will see my post. Sorry, I'm not computer savvy....

Hmm...

So there is no threading on the bottom of our shift ***** eh?

I'm just trying to get a new shift **** and they sell them in like 6 or 7 different thread patterns, which is why I assumed ours was threaded. They are in no way a Crossfire specific company, but I thought it might work.

Guess not :c

Your **** looks great though, nice work and thanks for the info!

-Eric

I was looking at one more like this. From this specific company. (They don't have a working website yet, found them through Facebook.) 9k Racing

**** looks like this:



Comes in the sizes:

Threading:
8x1.25
8x1.5
10x1.25
10x1.5
12x1.25
12x1.5

Do you think I could make this work some how?

Thanks,
Eric

It's hard to tell from that photo, but, that looks to be a simple thread on type handle. That won't work with the six speeds, because of our lift up and over to get into reverse. There are NO threads on the end of the shaft to thread onto, sorry.
If you take a look at the left side of my sketch page, you can see my rendetion of the shifter shaft. The end of the shaft has two features, a double sided flat spot for the internal construction of the OEM handle (keeps the handle from twisting around the axis), the second feature is the retaining slot cut around the shaft towards the bottom (this is what the OEM tightning nut clamps into on the OEM handle), this is so you can lift the handle up/over into reverse.

Hope this helps...

In short - no. If you did some serious modifications, you make anything work, but the design of ours is such that the shaft goes pretty deep (LOL) into the **** and uses tension to hold itself, using the long shaft for leverage and stability. That looks like one that is designed for a screw on type only. You could ask them, but with that transluscent design, I don't know if you could make it look good.

Thanks for the great information guys.

That sketch is amazing, by the way.

Kind of a bummer, but i'll have to take another look at some of these websites posted and the Momo *****.

Thanks again for the help!

After reading the thread, I'm still not 100% sure how to tell if a shift **** is compatible with out set up?

Will this work?

Usually there is more information, or the word universal is used.

The one I bought came with several different sized inserts to use with multiple types of shafts, and it clearly displayed this. You may want to contact Momo to see...
