hello im thinkin of buliding my buggy into a 1 seater and my only concern is the shifter and im trying to do a low budget build because im also putting a crank cam and lifters in my motor. i already know im using some kind of rack for steering and i have a hydraulic assembly so. if you have any suggestions for my shifter please do tell.

thanks
dave

Checkout Mckenzies site. Download the catalog and lookup shifters. They have just what you need. A side shifter cost around $90. Works good. Thats what I have. You will like the single seater. Since I built mine I have been able to climb hills better, noticed a sharp increase in my income and have lots of beautiful women fighting for my attention.

I saw a setup a guy made once using rod and 3/8 swivels. This would work if your seat is far enough ahead of your tranny. My brother had a single seater. The shifter was between his legs and the shift tube went under the seat. It was actually kinda cool. Theres a couple ideas.
