That looks like a great ****!

Is it the locknut you don't like? I don't see any problem at all... looks just like the Hurst locknut on my '05 shifter. Great find!

 

I got a new one offline too

 

No, the real issue is the boot adapter, it is too small in diameter to fit snug in the top of the boot so I had to glue the boot to it to get the it to stay up around it.

 

Well, the $20 credit got back to my card today.

Good job LRS!

Now just waiting for my redline tuning hood lift kit...

 

Excuse me good sir, but i think you have a problem. Your seat seems to be inside your dashboard/steering wheel.

OP:

I like this shift ****. Looks nice in the pictures you took. Great find.

 

Okay, found the ultimate low-buck fix for the issue with the boot adapter that comes with the LRS ****...

THROW IT AWAY!!!

Nah, not really, I never throw stuff like that away, I'll hang onto it for some later use of some kind.

But I did find the best fix for the least bucks.

Company called "Drake Muscle Cars" AKA Scott Drake, makes all kinds of stuff for Mustangs, mostly classic Mustangs, makes a shift boot adapter that fits the standard boot on 05-13 Mustangs.

AND IT FITS!!!

It's taller than the other adapter and is threaded so it doubles as the lock nut for the ****.

And the cost was only $12.95 on a price match from American Muscle!

I used the $20 refund from LRS to buy the Drake adapter.

Looks lots better and I did a better polish job on this one.

Thats looks real good...

 

Yup, I'm satisfied with it now.

Took some doing but it's done right and looks great.
