Default Pics of my new Hurst white ball shifter

Just thought I'd share my new purchased. I'm really happy the way it looks!! I didnt try it cause its winter here, but I like the it feels in my hand. I had the ebony Hurst leather shifter before, it was looking good, but I was in for a change!

i got that same stick and ball....except I didnt push the boot all the way down ....I dont like how it looks all scrunched down ....

but yeah! you'll love how it feels driving.....makes the shifts alot closer and tighter plus it feels more ratchety ...just an all around great feel to it.

you'll ask yourself why you didnt do it sooner.

here what happened to my hurst ball after about 3 months.
and NO! i did not have it over tighten or bottomed out on the shaft nut.

I emailed the Ebay guy I got it from and he told me no warranty on these because they are discontinued items or some BS..

so i got fucked on this.

so check your ***** guys!.....lol

I want to get the same one, looks great! I like that you scrunched the boot down so "Hurst" is visable. My stock **** is worn to hell (non-hurst).

I have the same one as well. Couldn't be happier with it. I added some rubber washers (to the two bolts than mount the stick) to isolate the stick from transmission gear noise though.

Same thing happened to mine after driving it one time. The guy from Ebay said the same thing about a warranty. They look awesome on the car but these shifter ***** are pieces of ****!!! I threw it in the garbage and put my stocker back on.

OP...you can embed pics from photobucket.
