Can anyone help to locate a new seal
U know the seal between the shifter and the trany

I can't find 1 anywhere!!

would any of you possibly have a spare?

Thanks

 

have you tried summit?

 

I would call Hurst directly 818-483-1366

 

yeah i tried a bunch of places including hurst... there customer support SUCKS

they said they don't sell them seperatly...

can u believe it

 

Wow, that does suck. How the heck are you supposed to get parts?


Try this number 216-688-8300 ext 500 (shifter tech support)

or 216-688-8300 ext 264. That's the product manager for Hurst shifters. Tell him your a loyal customer who just wants to fix his shifter. Mention that if you can't fix then you will announce this problem to the whole Ranger community.

 

thanks I did try calling again this afternoon, I was told B&M now owns Hurst.
So I called them, again I was basically told to go F**k myself

Oh my dad is going to be so Pissed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

You're right, looks like Mr. Gasket Company sold Hurst to B&M. Sorry, but none of my numbers will work. The only thing to do is see if B&M will supply you with a parts vendor list. They have to be selling parts to someone.

 

You are talking about the thin rubber seal that joins the Hurst base to the shift cup right?

I called B&M, and it seems like there have been a few issues with the Hurst seal going bad. They apparently outsource that part of the shifter, so they do not carry the part. Rather than mess with trying to fix that part, they will send you a whole new shifter if yours is less than a year old and you have the receipt. I would ask them to ship the shifter first, so you don't have to yank out your shifter and wait. Call the 818-483-1366 number and ask for Drew. Hope it works out for ya.

 

i tried to find the receipt, no luck we moved and cleared things out!

Anyone have a reciept they can give me...???
I tried calling a few places that carry hurst to get the gasket, no luck with the either!!!

 

Try calling the company you ordered the Hurst from, and ask for a reprint on the receipt. If it's a good company, they should be able to do it with no problems.

You could also try using an RTP gasket compound to make a seal, since the original one is quite thin. Just don't use anything that is adhesive or permanent.

 

thanks guys... but my dad had ordered a spare when he got ordered the shifter in the first place... I didn't know it though.

he is smart, guess experience has to do with it.

Thanks everybody for your help.
