hey is it true you can reinstall teh stock knob onto the B&M STS? if so i might wanna buy it, how hard is it to install it?

 

I did and then it fell off. I JBwelded it back on.

 

yea you can i do when i go to the dealer lol

 

We have the B&M in stock, and from what we hear you can put the OEM knob on, we have not tested our selfs but a few have stated they have done this.

 

**** now I need to find my stock *** haha...... And ya it should fit I have seen it put on before.

It does thread on. I just did it

 

Yea it might thread on, but it WILL fall off eventually. The inside of the stock knob is not threaded, you just made some of your own. If you shift hard it will come off.

 

dam so can i use some lock tight and let that dry and then will teh knob stay on?

 

Alright I just finished installing the stock knob on the B&M STS. We have 3 choices:

1. Pound the Stock Knob onto the shifter (not smart)

2. Try anad tap the Knob (You need a BIG tap)

3. Drill and tap the shifter. Wrap the shifter in teflon tape (for tighter fit). push the knob on the STS and insert screw. There she is.....B&M STS w/ stock Knob

Please excuse the mess......I'm still building the balt....not much time for cleaning

 

yeah see i like the look of the stock knob, the b&m looks gross and then the hurst is straight up horrible, and i am leaning towards the b&m becuase u have the choice to put the stock knob back

 

hey, i saw some knobs you can put on the B&M short throw, but i heard that you have to do something to the reverse lock out to make those knobs work. is that true?

 

If the knob has a gap under it for the reverse lockout, you can use it. Otherwise, you have to do something creative - probably involves cutting aluminum.

 

hmmm, my stock knob threads onto my B&M just fine, been on there a couple of months now, locks in place even. I just tried to go out there and yank on it a few times, it wont move. Guess I got lucky, or the redlines are a bit diferent...?
