i'm trying to make a short shifter, per mywhite94celicagt's how-to,
http://www.6gc.net/howto/make_custom_short_shifter and i've hit a couple of issues. i pm'ed him a few days back and he hasn't gotten back to me, so i figured i'd ask everyone else. does anybody know what size/length the pin pressed into the side of the ball is? (the one that holds it in place on the lever) i've drilled well past the o.d. of the main lever, and it still won't move when i smack the top of it with a punch. help! EDIT: i figured it out, see below. this will now be my thread for progress on the project. the goal is a functional short shifter for a paltry 15 bucks. that's using a spare, you could do it to your own FO' FREE. i'll have a spare, who knows...maybe i'll make another and sell it! EDIT TWO: really, i just want to spread the love. this is a pretty easy mod you can save yourself at least $40 by doing.
