Hurst short shifters please come in. New short chrome stick installed.
Hey all hurst shifter people I was wondering if any of yall have seen or used this short stick with your hurst billet plus shifter base. He's the picture of the short stick.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Hurst...Q5fAccessories
Update here's how it looks installed. The main reason I wanted this different stick was so that I could keep my shifter ball($85) that I got for the Hurst billet shifter and the new stick is shorter. The only thing that was not right in the auction was that this stick does not lean rearwards it leans frontwards due to where the grooves are on the bottom of the stick. An a side note the picture in the ebay aution has a weld right about the grooves on the stick but when I received it, it is not welded it's on solid piece like the stock billet chrome stick. But I will say I have great clearance and everthing with all gears, if I would have problem with any gear it will be in reverse but it's called grabbing the ball tight or palm shifting. I like the setup and oh yea it's shorter. Now that being said I have 5 pictures for yall. 1st is difference in the lengh of the stick, 2nd stock billet plus stick in neutral, 3rd new shorter stick in neutral, 4th new shorter stick in 1st gear and the 5th one is my shifter ball. An now I'm not no f'n georgia bulldog fan. Do any of yall think yall are going to try this stick? If not I have an stock hurst long stick with black hurst ball for sale with gears and hurst engraved on the ball for sale.

I just used a WS6Store short stick "slightly" modified with a sledge hammer heh. I angled it to the driver's side a bit and combined with the C6 Shift **** puts it just high enough to keep a coffee in the center console but be right where my arm height is relative to the shifter.

I have the Hurst Billit Plus shifter and i ordered the chrome stick from Hurst. It doesn't look like yours though. Mine is round not flat. It says Hurst on it and I have a white **** from an old 4-speed Hurst Compatition Plus linkage that screwed right on. I think it's pretty cool....

Looks good bro!.......not sure if I could hang w/my shifter being any more forward tho?
I went w/TNA Motorsports stick, It's like the WS6 store strait stick but comes w/a spacer block & positions the stick in center of console.....Very happy w/it!
