The Hurst shifter

I'm Looking at the Hurst shifter but i need to know how it works with reverse lock out. Does it remove it or is special modifacations needed and how hard are they to install?

Still works and is an easy install.

Still works, you MUST adjust shifter cables. So if you install it and you have no reverse lockout, adjust the cables, I believe the right one fixes how far left/right the shifter sits which is the one you need to adjust to fix reverse lockout issues.

Awesome! Shifts aren't necessarily shorter but much more solid. The entire stock shifter is plastic and the Hurst is metal and you can feel the difference.

I did see a post somewhere where a guy with an 07' said his stock one was all metal and he couldn't figure out what plastic piece to tranfer over from the stocker to the Hurst. I will try and find the post.

Here it is. Looks like he figured it out. I would PM him and get the poop on his install.

I love mine, way better than stock. Like Matty said, firms up the shifts a LOT.

are the hurst shifters made specifically for the ss/sc cars? i have a 2.4l and my car doesnt have reverse lockout, so if i get the hurst and install it will i have reverse lock out then? and im reading about adjusting cables or what not and im definitely not sure what that means, would you guys recommend me getting it installed professionally or do you think i could do it with the right instructions?
