WS6Store was $25 for me...

I used a sledgehammer and a vice to add a little bend heh

I have WS 6store stick and enjoy it. Just wish it was bent slightly to the left but thatx an easy fix. Costs half as much as Lou's. That was the seller for me.

Both the WS6 Store stick and our stick have great reviews, you can't go wrong with either one.

Thanks for the order Josh

I dont really think you can go wrong any way you look at it. We have Lou's on our Pro 5.0 (In the 00) and a WS6Store 6" on our stock Hurst(02).. Depends on your preference, Lou's is slightly bent to the drivers side.

i just ordered the umi stick. looks like a nice piece with plenty of threads incase i want to cut it down a bit.

i have a ws6store stick now and it isn't bad i just down like like visually it seems off by a gate and it hits the trim when i put it in reverse. but now that i have the umi i might try modding the ws6store by heating it to be bent towards the drive and maybe a litte towards the back.

I love my 6" WS6Store short stick. I thought it might be too short, but it's fine. I replaced my stock Hurst with it.

ws6store 6" on Hurst Billet Plus with Hurst T-handle. No problem installing, rubbing, etc. Love it! 35-40% shorter throws than stock and I think the gate is better. I also like the lack of bend or angle. Only thing is the stick is *not* finished, no chrome, etc. I could swear the stick was chromed on the pics on ws6store.com. Cosmetically it's nothing, the boot completley covers it. I just feel like I got the "short end" of the "short stick".

i got the umi yesterday and it is a very nice piece. it measures 6.5" in overall length, and has about 2" of threads on it.

I think im going to cut a 1/2" off to make it a bit shorter.

Pro 5.0 !! just got it installed! and I love it! Also, I have a question for some people, I bought my 5.0 with hopes of saving my transmissions syncros, do I have to set the shift stops to save my syncros or does the shifter it self help that!!
