I have one I’ll gladly sell for $100 plus shipping. You can find a pistol grip easily. As far as the shifter install, it’s pretty simple. I didn’t keep my stock one bit many do.

Anyone thinking about a shifter needs to get a TMODcustoms rebuilt shifter box first! HUGE improvement in the stock shifter and for something like this I can't imagine doing the shifter without doing the box.

Be sure and do the anti-venom mod. It takes less than 15 minutes

Installed new shifter last night. Took about an hour (would of been quicker if I had a 7mm socket). I couldn't be happier with the way it looks and shifts.

Also removed the GM badges and installed the smaller 3" Hurst badges.

I REALLY love the way that looks! If you like the improvement you'll love the improvement with a tmodcustoms box.

Well I might of spoke to soon. Even though I love the way it looks and feels, I'm getting shifter rattle. Not sure what to do about it. (

The shifter looks pretty good but it sure looks like a knuckle buster/pincher.
