Custom Billet Shift Knob for Toyota Tacoma (2-1/4" diameter). ***Utilizes factory boot.***

.

If only I started this when I was single, could easily push this to its full potential and go after all of that. But nah, trying to keep balance in my life kills that idea immediately. I like having basically no skin in the game, no pressure and I can do what I want rather than what needs to be done to pay off equipment loans.

 

Also, these will be available for sale on/after 6/4. No time set or anything, just email me when you do and I'll work through as fairly as possible without making my life more difficult (which I am an expert in).

3 knobs are already engraved, but the others are open for personalizing. V2 collars are still open for customization (ABCD engravings, which are included in the price of the knob below), as I still need to make those.


V1 AT (3rd Gen only) (picture example)
(Qty. 1) -Animate- V1 AT - 316 Stainless steel hybrid (Aluminum core)($205+ship)(example)


V2 AT (2nd or 3rd Gen)
(Qty. 1) -Animate- V2 - Copolymer/Delrin Hybrid (Brass core) [350g] ($145+ship) (AT example)

^I can also do a V1 w/ brass core for this style, so ask if interested in that ... as it is a slightly different one-off process.

V2 MT (2nd or 3rd Gen)

(Qty.2) -Animate- V3 MT - 316 Stainless steel hybrid (Copolymer core) [550g] ($205+ship) (example <-- shown in aluminum)
brass core also available if you like SUPER HEAVY knobs.

Edit: recently added the below as it is back on the market
(Qty. 1) -Animate- V3 MT - 6061 Aluminum Hybrid (Brass core) [430g]

Current status picture. 6 to the left of the line are sold already, 9 to the right represents what is listed in the post above.

Edit: The aluminum V3 is available again. Left side of line in the front.

 

It's cool to see them all side by side like that. A little tricky for some of us to differentiate v1, v2, v3. Ideal might be a left-to right or A, B, C scheme so we can match up the description with the knob. I think I'm mostly there following the clues. The sexiest to my eye is the one in the middle which I assume is the Ti v2? Just slightly darker than the aluminum, though honestly pretty close to stainless.

 

Yep. V3 Stainless is front row on the right side. V2 Stainless behind the V3's (V3 connectors stored for now)

V1 AT Stainless next to the black V2(or V1)AT copolymer in the back.

Ti front and middle, 2 aluminum V2 MT to the left.

The Ti and SS look fairly close at this point, but very different after they are polished.

 

I swear @tonered has a bot on his computer which auto adds likes. He is so fast, zoom!

 

That little red dot is my enemy. Gotta kill it.

 

I will take the V1 AT knob. PM sent

Edit...stainless please.

Edit...sorry just went back to posts on page 166. Looks like a battle may ensue on June 4th...

 

Just got mine installed late last night and drove to work today, wowie what a treat! Who knew a ball of polished metal would feel so nice! Then the grooves for a little texture, oh man! Is it hot in here??

Huge thanks to Rick for the superb upgrade, which is now the nicest bit about my truck, and making it even more enjoyable to row!

 

Did you end up messing with the collar files at all?

 

I planned on installing my knob over the past weekend but I decided to snap my collarbone instead.

On the positive side, I am now partly made from titanium which might get some people on here excited

 

Careful. @TeecoTaco may hunt you down for radio knob raw materials.

 

Ouch ... yeah @TeecoTaco is probably headed your way like some horror flick repo-man coming to claim his precious.

 

My Precious!

 

Definitely locking my doors tonight

 

I didn’t get a chance. I’ve been super busy at work. Plus our first kid is throwing my normal “play time” routine out the window. Hoping to get it printed in the next couple weeks. Plus I wanted to benchmark the Derlin collar first.

 

Any possibility of an AT Ti shift knob coming up for sale? Just got my truck back from the shop after someone thought it’d be a great idea to merge in my lane with the Tacoma still there. Had to buff out a few areas, replace both fender flares, pull out a tiny dent and replace one bumper cover. Looking to spoil her with a new shift knob, welcome her back home.

 

Intriguing question...has a Ti AT ever been made?

 

and it would need to be burnt/heat treated to show different colors
