you have a t-45 transmission. 2 good shifters fo the t-45 is the steeda tri-ax or a pro 5.0 It depends on how short you want the shifter because the pro 5.0 has the shortest.

Nope, I had one on my '93 and it felt great.

I've got both but prefer the Pro 5.0. Of course, we've switched handles as you can see in our sig below, but heck, handles are cheap, and I'll likely switch back and forth several times, just for kicks - swapping the handle is a 5 min task...

Im 6 feet and have the seat all the way back and the Pro 5.0 is a little too short for me. I like the Pro 5.0 shifter better than the Tri-ax although they are about the same. Pro 5.0 shifter with the Tri-ax handle is the best combo for me.

My next mod will definately be a new shifter. Im also torn between the two, but I think im going to get the Tri Ax because I hear its better for the daily driver type.
