Aftermarket Shifters & Linkage so i've attempted searching multiple times to find this information prior to posting this thread and can't seem to find any info on the subject.
Long story short, my shifter is giving me issues (like most V1's do), its hitting the driveshafter and after a brief inspection it looks like the linkage is bent. Trying to find the best route to take I looked around here and CF for a bit but no real luck there, found a lot of shifters but it looks like the only part that is sold is just the actual stick portion.
Does anyone know where to order an aftermarket shifter that comes with the linkage?
I called the dealer and the only thing they offer is the entire assembly GM #15276076 that is damn near $500.
Thanks everyone for the help in advanced.

based on this, it looks like UUC makes them. However, that post if from years ago, so you'd have to call to see if they still offer them.

I am assuming you have an aftermarket/modified shifter? Make sure that the shift cup, (the white plastic pieces) that go around the shifter ball are oriented to put the shifter into the car more. It works fine and gives you driveshaft clearance.
If you do need a new linkage, check ebay, they pop up from time to time. Or find somebody on here parting a car out, i can't imagine they are that popular so there should be several available.

The UUC shifter still used the stock shift linkage. Look at those pictures to see if yours looks bent any different than stock (stock was not straight) I am not sure what you would do to bend your stock one.
