Custom shift knob made on a laith out of brass. Still need to punch the numbers on it.

>>14891398
I think it's an auto, it just lets you change the "range" it'll select from.

Looks slippery.

>>14891481
It's not bad really. The knurling on the sides helps. Also it weighs about 1.5 pounds.

Ya it's acted up downshifting to 2nd or 1st twice in a month period recently. I think that had to do with low oil. Hasn't done it since I topped it off. I've had that shifter almost a year now.

>>14891444
Yeah its auto, but the "sport" mode lets you over ride and shift when you want. It actually makes a noticeable difference, but not much.

>tfw car manufacturers think people need massive center consoles for "muh shifter" and "muh cup holders
>all i want is a stick shifter with i little boot comeing out of the trans tunnel
>mfw my 94 jeep zj is more comfy then a 2012 traverse

No like how is it possible that my knee rubs up against the dash in a traverse, im not even big, 4chin standers i would be called a manlet

Isnt the pont of fwd litterly for cabin space and drivability so tards can drive them

>one piece center console and dash

Cancer, what manufacturers dont want manspreading in their cars

I bet your hand smells every time you use it.

Try aluminum next time.

Also the proper spelling is "lathe."

That's real nice, but why brass? Aluminium or even Stainless Steel would have been my choice. Nice design though, 10/10 for home made.

Stock knob on short shifter master race.

I honestly want a manual valve body, but there's just something about a bench seat and a column shifter. Slap it in D and run 12s on radials all day

I had a metal shift knob and it was so damn hot to the touch during the summer, I got it replaced with a leather one

Well, I've dropped damn near 5k into since I bought it, but that was all stuff that was fucked when I bought it. It's at 307k right now and just started getting a tick. Fucking hydraulics. I'd buy another in a heart beat. I love it. Just don't expect power out of it.

Some weight in the back and it's perfectly fine. I didn't have any weight in the rear all winter and didn't spin out.
>>
>>14894304
Because that's what was laying around and done on a whim. Will go aluminum next time.
