Lou's Short Stick
How much would Lou's Short Stick help? If you install that on the stock Hurst shifter then can you take it off later and put it on a Pro 5.0? Thanks in advance!

Re: Lou's Short Stick
Made a huge difference on my factory hurst--along with the MBA **** its a crazy short throw
BTW, I *think* sticks for the Pro 5.0 and the Hurst are different, but I think Lou's will switch them out for you

Re: Lou's Short Stick
so...does Lou's stick angle toward or away? Common sense would say toward the driver. but I wanted to double check before I bought one.
Putting 4.11's in your car really makes the sloppy shifting a BIG problem! *shift**shift**shift**shift*... "arrgh!! Wish I had gotten the stick before the gears!"

Re: Lou's Short Stick
I love the LSS and Pro 5.0 combo...makes a world of difference and feels much more comfortable and fun to drive. Definately worth the money I spent. I bought the combo from afterthoughtsauto. they had it shipped to me fairly quickly.

Re: Lou's Short Stick
So from what I understand, you must have a hurst factory option in order to be able to accomodate the LSS or JSS? If this is correct, how do I know if I have this option already? If I dont have this already I must instal a Pro 5.0 first?

Here's the link to it. The dropdown menu has all the options.

Re: Lou's Short Stick
I know the stick will increase noise, but does that mean just the clicks of shifting or being able to slightly hear the machinery >whirl< on occasion (in neutral or some downshifting)
I just want to check if noise is due to no rubber isolator and not part of tranny doing something wierd at this convienient time.

Re: Lou's Short Stick
Hardly any noise at all from my shfter. Just need to make sure all the bolts are tight. of course I don't think I'd be able to hear the noises over the exhaust and stereo anyway
