JSS installed.....wow I finally broke down and bought a short stick for my hurst. I remembered a guy named jarrod that made them for $20 and supposedly outdid lou's and cost half as much. Quality and craftsmanship looked excellent and after installation...wow. I would recommend this mod to anyone who wants better shifts for super cheap.

Re: JSS installed.....wow Here's some more pics of both short sticks.
Stock Hurst Stick on the left, Lou's in the middle and Jarod's on the right:
The last pic shows the rubber isolator found in the stock sticks. This is the big reason why the factory Hurst feels so loose.
JSS is 1/2" longer than LSS
Both short sticks come with same size of bolts
JSS has locking nuts for added clamping
LSS is a little thicker and has a slight bend to it which angles away from the driver.

Re: JSS installed.....wow ok. i 'm sold on the short sticks but will this mod void my factory warranty ?
I have read both yes and no on this subject and on this particular mod. Even the dealer can't give u a straight answer. They say "it all depends on the damage".
Any thoughts.

Re: JSS installed.....wow if youre using the short stick on a stock shifter (hurst or non hurst) then i dont see how they can void warranty. You are still using the tranny's built in stops, and havent messed with the mechanism in any way, shape or form.

Re: JSS installed.....wow I'd just install the stock stick back on before taking it to the dealer. Only takes 5 minutes and it will give the dealer no reason to void anything. Thats the beauty of short sticks. Very easy to install.

Re: JSS installed.....wow Would the 1/2 difference in height cause LSS to have shorter throws then the JSS. I know you can cut the JSS if you want. Just wondering if the 1/2 in. difference is negligible

Re: JSS installed.....wow I doubt you'll notice a difference. I've had both LSS and JSS, and I can barely tell the difference when shifting. Not sure about the Quik Stick though.
