decided that the b & m shifter for pedallin was an epic fail so decided to modify it a touch... want to be able to change gear and find reverse easier..
firstly started pulling out the shifter etc..
"ta daaaa".. removed all the associated parts till only the shifter gate was left. as ya can see, on the very left is where park is then progressively goes through reverse, neutral, drive second then first.
i wanted to change this so i could slide through the driving gears easier and worst casde hit neutral and also occasionally be able to hit up to find reverse immediately like in a steep hill climb to hopefully prevent a roll over backwards.
"oh my gosh"... i then modded the gate so when lockin tab down, i could slide up and down forward gears hassle free and if i wanted reverse, just lift lockin tab fully and move forward and it'd be straight there.
"just there...." is where you'll see the bolt i put through to create a strong stopper so the shifter wouldnt move back to far accidentally when i get the old 'slap er in and go' happening..
so as it sits now, the gate allows ya to lift the lockin pin and slide forward till it hits reverse, being a concious effort. then when the pins down ie standard, ya can slide the shifter back and forward as per a normal auto..
have also bypassed the starter isolator proxy. where it used to start only when shifter in park, it can now start in any location. this is via a switch to turn on when seated and in vehicle and off when out of vehicle etc..
. Good work
