The concept behind an adjustable throw is awesome and I think it’s well executed. I adjusted the knob height and throw a couple times so far and I will still probably keep playing with it to find that ‘sweet spot’ for my preference. Knob height seems to go as high as a little higher than stock to very low as well (obviously your throw adjustment will have an affect on the knob height range as well).
Overall I recommend this kit and I’m looking forward to tinkering with it some more to get it to my version of ‘perfect’ throw and height.
*Also, I would 100% recommend doing the carrier bushings as well.

Thank you so much for such a detailed review!
Couple questions though:
Is there any audible vibrations from the shifter area while driving, say accelerating in 2nd or 3rd gears?
Is the shift rod positioned the same as stock or is it now closer to the driver? Position, say when in 1st gear?...Is it too close to the front edge of the surrounding console trim?
Have you tried driving with the included longer rally style extended shift rod? Would really appreciate some feedback on that!
Thanks a ton!
