stronger shifter tab for stageright users

i would take 2 of these if you have them.
PM me about price and i can send the money out.
Also do you have any pics of them?

Thanks
Dennis
 
Here is a pic of the stock j-rod and the one I made up. They are basically the same with the main difference in the material. The upper portion is 17-4 SS and the J section is MP35N. Should be a direct swap with a little adjustment to the plastic hight adjuster under the handle.
I made these out of request from a couple of board members, not trying to make a living off of these just making a part that will stand up to more abuse than the stocker can take.
I have 9 left.

mine fit perfect and worked flawless, very happy..

excellent product !!
 
I'll take one,

I will return your PM, and paypal when I get the chance tomorrow.

I don't launch with a transbrake, I launch in 2nd. I have the shifter gate installed and it helps me not overshift the 2-3 when the shiftlight blinks.

Sorry to be ignorant here...

I recently purchased an 87 T, that I found out post the purchase that it has a stagerite in it. It scared the heck out of me when I was wanting to do a little burnout on the driveway... What is this J rod for and located? I have a column shift car, does it use one?

Just a little curious, for if/when I decide to try the stagerite out at the track.

Thanks all,
Mike

If you have a column shift car... your setup doesn't have a j-rod..

Has anybody installed a modified detent in your column for stageright??

This is for console shifters. The rod helps to prevent the shifter from moving with out the button being pressed in. Again this is for console shift not column.

Thanks Phil...

I will check later on when I am out in the garage, but I do not think so. The brake was installed by the guy who built the car some 8 years ago. There has been 4 different owners since then, with 2K miles put on it through those years. CRAZY... And the guy that I purchased the car from did not know it was in there, so neither did I when I purchesed the car. I hope to think it is a nice added bonus to my purchase. You know the story, nothing is like you would have it, and requires repairs to satisfy your feelings about a car - your own car that is...
