My sticky cherry has been popped........OUCH!!!

 

why th ^&%( are th ss/sc short throws so &*^&^*)&^ much ?
would these work on th ss/sc?

 

I think they will with a little modding https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/how-guide-43/pclears-custom-short-throw-shifter-29414/ or pclears are a little cheaper

 

Can sum1 please tell me what this blue peice that comes with it goes to?

 

That + the c-clip replace the plastic pin you remove while taking the shifter apart. It holds the plastic lever thing on the side in place.

 

My is still kickass!!

Knob gets really cold tho, so its currently covered with a sock,

 

Where can I get one now?

 

eBay son! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Short...spagenameZWDVW

 

lol mines covered with a winter hat... i figured it's just appropriate lol

 

That one doesn't come with a knob.
Try this one.

 

Does that one come with any instructions?

If so, I see the exact one on ebay that I can buy right now.

 

You can get the instructions off TWM website: http://www.twmperformance.com/manual...n%20Manual.pdf

 

Thanks man.

 

were the ones purchased from ebay aluminum or a stronger metal? the cosmo ones went up in price too.

 

The shaft is stainless or chromed steel, the lockout is aluminum.

 

crap...all of the ebay ones are cheap ones now.

 

This is what you need, it has a knob http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/00-05...spagenameZWDVW

 

and this will fit my G5 right?

 

It should, G5=Cobalt and it fits a Cobalt

 

**** now i know what that is. I didn't know what it was and chucked it. Anyone else have this piece, and didn't use it? Cosmo said they can't give me one. The blue metal thing.

 

ok i see it fits the SS/NA

just to double check will the 2.2 short shifter fit my 2.4??

Here's my Cosmo short shifter installed.



The install took about 2 hours instead of 1 because I had hell removing the shift linkage and trying not to brake the plastic roll pin. The roll pin wasn't really an issue because they give you an aluminum press fit one to replace it with. I had an issue driving out the pin for the reverse lock but I figured I would remove it to keep from having any potential fit problems.

Cool thing was I didn't have to cut anything on the shift assembly to allow it to move freely. I did have to reuse the bushing for the side to side movement pin but that was no big deal.

It reduces the throw of the shifter about 35-45% from what I can tell. Plus the weighted shift knob (which I would say weighs in around 2pounds) really makes the throw seem a lot easier.

I highly recommend the shifter for the money.

 

How are your cosmo shifters holding up months or years down the road??? I'm seriously considering getting one with TWM bushings.
