9/16"-18 I'm almost positive.
Most aftermarket ***** are universal fit and usually attach with set screws and come with several size bushings to accomodate the shaft size.

I just had one of the Hurst T-handles rethreaded to 9/16-18. It works great. :cheers:

Is correct, I found this buried in the printed material that came with my Hurst shifter. I was on the phone with JEGS wanting to know if their classic T-handle would fit. The answer is no different thread size. RATS. We need to start a letter writting campaign to Hurst. I want a Hurst T-Handle.

Tell us more. What did it take to re-thread the classic Hurst T-handle. I want one real bad.
