Got a tko 500 and it came with a stock "short shifter " but was wondering if anyone who has one replaced it anyway. Which one is best for this tranny. I had a Tri-Ax in my t-45 and it was ok. Wanting something different maybe. thanks.

The shifter is not as big an issue now because the TKO has internal stops. If the supplied shifter feels good use it, or use any aftermarket name brand. It's up to you.

Didn't know it had internal stops. I saw none on the outside so I thought it didn't have any. Sometimes it doesn't like quick 2nd-3rd shifts.

I heard on this forum that the TKO has internal stops.
My car is a 2001 Mustang GT with Tremac TR3650 transmission. I was seeking info on this forum when I was told that all new Tremecs have internal stops. The TKO is a new transmission. I'm sorry, but I assumed that this the TKO has internal stops. I suggest you ignore me and wait for someone else to answer.

Try http://tremec.mrt-direct.com/500.php
It states that the TKO has internal stops at the bottom of the paragraph.
