I just thought I would share this info. I am sure some of you may already know about this company, but they make some pretty sweet shift balls. They look a lot better in person, and are the perfect size.

If they don't have what you want, they will custom make it.

Had a real good experience with them, and I thought I would share. I see people always looking for shift knobs here and there.

Might order a red pony one from them for my 6 speed tranny. Thanks for posting that. I saw some cool flame ones a couple years ago at a swap meet but haven't been able to find them since then.

Not bad, I still prefer the ones that I make. (sorry for crappy photos, only had phone today)

My best one so far was to early in the learning process, so it was too small to be comfortable. At least it still looks cool.





The reclining girl on the top I got by taking a screenshot of the Probot video "Shake your Blood" and then I extracted the outline and machined it.

CNC machines rock! View attachment 507439

IMHO - I like the T-handle for ratcheting automatic shifters, but I personally like the ball best for a stick.

I find the t-handle defeats the shifter gates to a bit because you have more of a mechanical advantage over the shift lever in the left to right with a t-handle.

I've had the B&M and the Hurst T-Handle knobs. I don't like them at all. I went back to the stock one as it is better than those two. I think I'm gonna get the 03-04 Cobra leather one with the 5 speed pattern for my next try....

I don't like the T-handle either, but where can you get the 5 speed pattern 03-04 shift knob?
