    GREAT News: We are now manufacturing our own High Quality Shift Handle to go along with our Short Throw Kits!

    100% All-new & made right here in California from 100% USA materials:
    • Chromoly Steel One Piece Shift Lever
    • Oversized & press-brake formed 5/8" Chromoly Shaft
    • Hard-Anodized 6061-T6 Billet Aluminum Upper
    • Black Zinc-plated DOM Steel Retainer
    • Custom-made Tapered Spring

    The most beneficial part about this for us is that we no longer have to run to the wrecking yard over and over to find additional shift handles to modify. Despite the old $100 core charge, only 12% of customers would return their handles for the core refund (the core charge was not high enough!). Without cores coming back, we run out of stock Toyota handles and it would usually be Marlin searching wrecking yards on weekends for more. What's worse is some core returns would be beyond repair and junked.

    As you can see we have wanted to do this for a long time and are EXCITED to finally offer a COMPLETE all-new kit for the first time in our history of building short throws circa 1996!

    Available for the following Short Throw Kits:
    W-series handles are nearly finished and will be released very soon!

    Regards,
    BigMike

    Do you guys have any of these in stock? Looking for a kit for the 3.0. Your website says out of stock. Do you guys still make these? What is the lead time?

    Good morning M192! Sorry for the huge delay in these. Our scheduling is finally getting close to manufacturing these again. I will reply to this thread as soon as we have an update!
