Re: Installing a Hurst shifter
It may have done before but K2 has been climbed before, and people have swam with great white sharks, but I don't advise it.
Just took six hours to slowly work through the disassembly of my 95 Z shifter housing and did it all myself except for getting a hand from my son on the exhaust. There is no way I could have pulled that lower boot back or even snipped the zip tie if I had not pulled the exhaust. But it does help that I have a four post lift and boards to help prop up pipes when I removed it.
So far so good. Now if I can just remember where everything went. Thankfully will have an expert over tomorrow to check my work. The primary goal was to not lose anything and do far, so good. Hopefully tomorrow she is running with a new Hurst short throw. A heck of a lot of work for one new part that comes with four C rings, three zip ties, and three tubes of lub as the primary new parts and kit. I've never changed any shifter ever so this has been pretty cool and fun I must say!
