Many people on this site that have manual transmissions use the hurst short throw shifter, item # 3915020 from summitracing.com
But of the people that I have found to use these shifters, none have said what size engine they have. With so many people on the site doing V8 swaps, I just want to make sure the shifter will work with my engine and transmission.
I have a '96 Sport with the 4.0 liter engine and the stock manual transmission.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
But while we are on the talk of transmissions, I am having trouble with mine. It seems to have trouble going into gear. It only happens when I am at a dead stop though, like after backing up, stopping, then trying to put it into first. It almost seems like there is somehting blocking the slot that the shifter would go into. You really have to try to jam it in there, but I don't want to break anything.
But like I said, it only happens at a dead stop. If I am rolling up to a stop light, it goes into first easier.
thanks for your help.
