Whaty kind of shifters are people running?
I was looking at a B&M ratchet shifter but have no experience on what would be the better choice off-road.
I want to have the ability to quickly shift from drive to reverse without having to worry about little lockouts and such.

I'll get you the spec's on my B&M. Handle lifts with smooth action to get reverse and park. no trigger or finger lock. Didn't run it yet, but it feels nice sitting in the cab. lol

i have a b&m ratchet shifter in the jeep. i hated it at first but after i took out the reverse lock out lever i like it and can now go to rev quickly with one hand. i got a pro bandit for the new buggy and it will be loosing the rev lock out before it ever goes in.

Build thread on new buggy? I can't post pics on here so what's the point. I tried to post pics twice. It's just some old junk I had laying around I'm putting together to beat on the rocks. I don't make things fancy like some other people. |

Build thread on new buggy? I don't make things fancy like some other people. I heard that! Although I appreciate and like all the cool work seen here or other boards when I smash my buggy I bet it hurts a lot less than the pretty ones! ;D ;D ;D Which B&M shifter? |
