Anybody know what size threading is used on the shifter **** for the 06 manualstick? I want to swap out shifter ***** with one of my own but I need to know the size for the tap and drill? Also has anyone taken one of theirs apart? Is it screw on, how is it affixed? I tried fooling with mine short of breaking it and could get if off easily. Does anyone have a schamatic of the parts out their or know where I can get one?

Thank you in advance!

I don't know the tread size, but the factory **** just unscrews off.

Thank you sooo much.I plan to put on a a true pistol grip on the shifterand again none of my Ford dealers had the size, go figure. I knew someone in here would know though so thanks again Middle Aged Kid! I'll post pics when I get done! Should look pretty cool!

Hey, by the way how do you know?

I've made a few shift ***** for my 07 gt, the threads on mine are M12x1.25 , somewhat of a extra fine metric pitch.

7/16 works fine for your tap drill size, i recommend only tapping about 1 in. deep , make the rest of the hole a clearance.

I put set screws in the base of theshift knobsi made to ensure no movement

good luck!

You can go to Auto Zone and buy the pistol grip by Hurst, in the box there are inserts that fit all different size stalks. The Hurstball is the same way.

Yes after an extensive search of pitches and MM I now know what you know. I haven't consulted the site for a few days and went on the other guys sizing to start. So thank you for confirming what I have learned. That will teach me tolook here more often.

Again thanks,

Matt
