Define desired knob location in space (neutral position):
- Measure height from base flange to desired knob location = overall height
- Measure side & rear offsets from receptacle bore to desired knob location
- See this diagram for clarification
- Study the Hurst stick page for shapes that meet your needs
- Allow 3-6 for stick mount height
- Choose a stick and see what fulcrum heights are compatible with it (see chart)
- Check overall height (see chart: stick height + mount height = overall height)
- Confirm chosen combination achieves desired knob location and that fulcrum height works with stick length selected
- Consider various stick & stub combinations to optimize
- Note long sticks on angled mounts will strongly offset knob to left (can be 5-6 +)
- Options E & F require a Hurst stick directly mounted on side w serrations
-
- Stick length = point-to-point distance from mount hole to knob thread
- Stick mount height = distance from base flange to stick bolt hole (affects knob height)
- Fulcrum height = distance from lower ball to fulcrum pin; varies by option, not published
- Warning: Follow stick length guide to avoid excess effort & component failure
-
- Billet steel gear selector stub

A Hurst stick is required (NOT included, sold separately). Other brands and homemade sticks are discouraged. Stick mount has 3 8 -24 threaded holes spaced 7 8 apart on center + mating serrations for a Hurst stick on one face. Due to larger mounting threads (3 8 -24), sticks that use 8mm mounting bolts (most OE, non-TKO Lokar, others) will not work. Lokar TKO sticks can be mounted but only to the smooth side of the stub. To select the proper parts:
- Wait until new transmission is installed to buy shifter parts
