I edited your post there... if they want to sell their shifters here, someone needs to become a sponsor. I tried to encourage them to do so when they first signed up - but was ignored. Now reviews are sprouting up all over the place and still no sponsor.

That won't be a problem, either bushings will work fine for this mod...if we can get one. Seems like such a great part, he really needs a site so people can order one, or he could put them up on ebay.

Thanx for the Interest,

The Axxtion Short Throw Shifter is available and will be shipped to you the next working day by Priority Mail. Axxtion offers the shortest throw and is the least expensive of any USA made Short Throw Shifter. By changing the pivot point on the transmission shift linkage this billet aluminum shift adapter reduces the throw by a true 54% throw reduction. The 7075-T6 billet aluminum shift adapter is stronger than the competition. Pound per pound, 7075-T6 aluminum is stronger than steel and twice as strong as others 6061-T6. Installation is also a snap taking only 10-15 minutes using simple hand tools and the provided instructions. The kit being offered is anodized clear and the $70.00 US price includes freight within the USA.

To get your new Axxtion Short Throw Shifter, you can log on to https://www.paypal.com/ and go to the "send money" link. You can send a payment to me, using my email address (axxtion@hotmail.com) in the amount of $70.00 USD which includes shipping within the US. $75.00 USD which includes shipping to Canada. Make sure you include a shipping address, make and model, and any other info you might think I need. I will ship it to you by US Priority Mail, the next business day.

thanx
axxtion@hotmail.com

Look it at it this way, you'll be saving a ton of work, I've done a few short shifter installs and they are not fun, I would much rather install this one then the other ones, especially if you're not mechanically incline(not saying you're not, but there's plenty of people out there who rather pay someone else then get their own hands dirty)

Yeah but I already have a short shifter. So for the people out there who would like to just pick these up and try them out in addition to a short shifter the price is a little high.

Shifter was for $70 i believe. and it's not an actual replacement of the shift ****/stick, it's an attachment in the engine bay. It's super sick!

I have the B&M SS and added the axxtion shifter to it, and it's 100% love. it's so cheap too! and less of a hastle. It took me hours to install the damn B&M SS, and this piece literally took a few minutes.
