Short throw shifter. In this video I show you how a short shifter works and how to install one in your car. I also compare the difference between a stock shifter and an aftermarket short throw shifter so you can see the drastic improvement in the DriftStang!

*This exact procedure works on 1982-2004 Mustangs with a T5 or T45 manual transmission. The process is similar on most other manual cars.

  3. How do I remove shifter that is stuck with too much RTV gasket??? My son installed it and im afraid to damage the trans housing if I use hammer.

  4. To be grammatically correct, It's "a lot shorter throw", not "a lot shorter of a throw". Also, "a lot tighter fit", rather than "a lot tighter of a fit". Just delete the of a in both cases and you'll be good to go. Happy Motoring.

  5. I'm a '96 GT 4.6L 2V V8 Pony owner and I'm a devout follower Chris Fix Christ! I believe in Him because He hasn't failed me once! 'Stangs to the End of the Road!!!

  10. I hope you see this. I was wondering with my car when i shift it leaves and enters new gears realy easily i dont have to apply force. In the video it looks like you have to force it in gear. Is there Maybe something wrong with my shifter or is it just a difrence between cars. I drive a Daihatsu trevis

  13. I have an MGW tr3650 (race model with the shortest throw) on my 03 GT. I highly recommend it over the Steeda model. Pricey…(I think it's down to $250 now) but very nice and close to the best you can get, throw and overall quality IMO.
