Any custom or home made gear shifts out there? - TundraTalk.net

[poser] · 08-08-2008, 02:24 PM

So I was at the dealership yesterday picking up my bedrails and was looking in the part dept. and noticed a cool looking replacement shifter.
On the way home I realized that the stock one comes off ery easy and I could easily make my own.

Has anyone esle made one or bought a custom one?

there's always the cliche 8-ball, but I want something a little more unusual, and something thats is somehow realated to motorcycles.
one thought was somehow make onethat has a grip and a clutch lever on it ot something

Sounds like you have an idea in your head. Make one yourself. Cut end off a bike handle bar, weld an insert into it and thread it to match, installl desired grip and lever then thread on the Tundra shifter. Simple Simon. If you don't have a welder then take it to a welding shop and I am sure they could whip something out for you in nothing flat.

GETERDONE and then post pics!!!
