EastYorkStang 63 Report post Posted August 29, 2015 What shifter do you use with your conversion? I have one that when it's in 1-3-5 it almost beyond my reach. Thinking of cutting and rewelding it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Footcutter11 23 Report post Posted August 29, 2015 What shifter do you use with your conversion? I have one that when it's in 1-3-5 it almost beyond my reach. Thinking of cutting and rewelding it. I have a hurst shifter, and you can get shorter shift levers, and a short throw shifter ( just moves the pivot point up). http://www.ebay.com/bhp/mustang-t5-hurst-shifter Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SA69mach 39 Report post Posted August 29, 2015 I had to replace the stock shifter after my T5 installation, for the same reasons as you - too long on the throw to 1-3-5. Hurst make a nice shifter with correct mounting to the stock T5 'stub'. About 12 inches tall, with about a 4 inch curve, it works perfectly for me with the stock pivot. I got the Hurst ball shifter knob, which looks pretty good on the shaft, kind of retro, but right for the car. I have pics but photoshop is acting crazy right now. Will post if it clears up. The shifter is a common Hurst item. I got mine at Lane Automotive couple years back, but most Mustang parts vendors will have them. here is a link to CJPP with the shape you need. (Don't get the billet 'replacement' as it is the same size and shape as the stock shifter = no Bueno) http://www.cjponyparts.com/hurst-t5-conversion-shift-lever-1964-1970/p/MSL9/ ​ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TurboStangGT 7 Report post Posted August 29, 2015 anyone wanting a conversion Hurst shifter like the one cj's sells. I checked the web. the price range is from $97-$130 I just bought one from a seller on e-bay for $85 seller's name is "Hurst-Shifters" go figure! he had 10 of them he's down to 5 now his price is $97 or best offer I made a offer of $85. it was accepted right then. I just did a search for Hurst Shifter 5388022 and found him. I wouldn't wait if you want one. this is for the T-5 only, will not work with the TKO 500 or 600 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike65 475 Report post Posted September 21, 2018 I purchased the same shifter as SA69Mach, but have not installed it yet. I installed a Hurst "T" handle knob. https://www.cjponyparts.com/hurst-t-5-conversion-shift-lever-1965-1973/p/MSL9/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
