Default What shifter is this? **PICS**
Can someone help me identify this shifter? Knew it had an after market shifter when I bought this vehicle. Just did not know what type. Changing out the hazard switch and thought this would be a good time to take some pics.

Looks like a B&M ripper to me....How's the action on it? Does it transmit a lot of noise?

It's a B&M Ripper 45057. I don't know why that 'bulb' is in the middle of the shaft. Older model? Newer model?

Mine doesn't have that. Sweet shifer though

I think he is talking about the bulge in the shaft below the threads.
Probably helps keep the shifter boot from sliding down.
