Just wondering, I never hear what type of shifters you guys run or like to run. I have seen many different types, used them all from stock, to homemade to bugpack, and I like the short throw T style from Bugpack. Although, I haven't used a Berg, just wondering what type you guys like to run? Let me know, thanks Donnie |

Scat too close for me. Gene Berg is good, but you have to take out a loan to buy one(I think 350.00 plus). I use a modified stock shifter..works great. |

I use a stock shifter that is cut down, so it;s only about 4" high. Works great for me |

For the past couple seasons I've had the "short" empi T-handle shifter with the push button reverse lockout. The shifts are always solid, and I never have problems hitting the gears. One thing I have come to find out about it though is once in a while you have to take a brillo pad and shine the button up and coat it with some light oil to make it work smoothly. The button is aluminum as is the body, and they tend to oxidize/corrode lightly if you don't stay on top of it. |

Just make sure you get the one with the off-road conversion (It has a seal around the button). Thick steel and you wi |

I use a stock one that has been shortened. Works perfect. I wouldn't use anything else. |
