Default Longer shifter?
Anybody know if there is a longer shifter available for mid controls (fxdls)? I've been looking around, can't seem to find anything. Would like one 2" longer if possible. Thanks in advance.

Thanks I will check into it! I might just lengthen the one I have depending on how spendy the longer one is.

When you make your own shifter how do you cut the splines?

Don't. Cut the shifter arm and weld in an extension.
