Custom Lightweight Shifters
Hey guys. I started to make these as there are fewer and fewer available to us.
This is my hobby not my business.
They are available for shipping. Shipping costs are about $25.00 from me to Alabama, for example.
I have made floor mounts and side mounts.
They are universal and fit any cable with a 3/8 diameter sleeve.
They DO NOT use the plastic lug (trunion) to position them.
Hope you like them!!!
$150.00 each for universal floor or custom side mount + shipping and Paypal fees.Last edited by Rowboat; 01-07-2015 at 09:04 PM. Reason: Price Change

Rick, these work by adjustable friction plate. You can adjust it to be so tight you need 3 men and a small boy to move the lever.
If you are worried about it falling out of gear. that would only happen if you adjusted it to loose.
I have quite a few of them in T-boats here, and not one has ever slipped out of gear.
I did make a design with a detent (and can still make them) but it was redundant with the friction disc.
Thanks for looking!!

Sorry for having fun on the water guys!!
As for the shifters:
New Smyrna Craig, I should have yours shipped on Tuesday/Wednesday this week. It's ready to go!!
Rkmirage, let me know if I can help in any way. I have floor mounts. A lot of the guys up here just glass in a piece of marine ply and mount it right to that. Simple and easy. But a nice console in your Mirage could have more than one purpose!!
