Dinan's billet short-shifter kits effectively reduce the amount of throw necessary to make gear changes providing a sportier feel. Larger BMW models with larger gearboxes require more leverage to make the gear changes which is why BMW employs different shift handle configurations for various applications. The Dinan short shifters are application-specific as well in order to achieve an appropriate reduction of throw providing the associated benefits without making the desired gear difficult to locate or require inordinate effort, a common complaint with other manufacturers" short-shift kits where a ''one size fits all'' approach is common. In addition, Dinan's short-shifters retain the nylon pivot ball and shifter bushing providing the same smooth and quiet operation as the original shifter.
Installation Instructions- Two piece 416 stainless steel & aluminum stick assembly
- Dampened pivot cup with self lubricating pivot ball
- Two piece stick provides vibration free operation
- Polymer Iglide T-500 lower pivot bushings
- Counter balanced to reduce effort
- A precise 20-25% throw reduction
