So right now I still have the stock shifter for my 3.0 Edge.



I want to go with something better looking that matches the rest of my interior.



I am thinking about a blue leather with black stitching leather shift boot from stuffforyourranger.com...

pics from their website..




My dilemma is the damn ****. I know the **** is glued on, and god knows I'm not strong enough to pull the damn thing off. I have tried, and even used a heat gun.

Has anybody had any success with a project like this? I don't really want to switch the entire shifter.

I want to do something similar to what my car has.... something similar to these:




I will probably paint the console/cup holder below body color to match.

 

That looks nice. Did you just take everything out and custom paint it? And I am no help on the shifter issue. Never tried it. Sorry

 

Haha yeah. I didn't have any other less "flashy" pictures but I think you see what I mean, the interior looks nicer than the shifter.

Yes not to get off track but I used stock Dupont paint and clearcoat.

 

Sounds simple enough. Your givin me ideas bro

 

Buy a Hurst.

 

Problem is I like the stock feel of the shifter.

 

Then get an FX4 Level II shifter. That thing is sex. And it's stock...

 

LVL II shifter FTW

 

where would one go to get this level 2 shifter?

 

Ebay, here or dealer.

As far as the sifter goes I'd personally go with the Hurst shifter.

 

they pop up on ebay from time to time, also check junkyards, and last resort.......... the stealership

 

I hate to feel ignorant, but what truck do they come on?

 

Ford Ranger FX4 LVL II???

 

I figured, but I havent seen any trucks around here of that model.

 

Basically an extended cab 4wd Ranger with a few more goodies. They no longer make the FX4 Level II model only FX4.

 

Buy a Hurst.

 

I don't see how anyone can like the feel of the stock shifter compared to the Hurst, the stock shifter feels like a wet noodle!

 

I like the stock price

 

looks sweet dude do it

 

Dude, I had the same problem! I cant get that freakin shifter **** off! I feel like im going to break something if i keep going with it haha.

Whats with all the hurst?

 

The hurst looks to be a really nice shifter that also shortens throws. But for $275, Id rather get a BL

 

duce post

 

Don't ask, just buy.

By far one of the best things I have done to my truck.

Hurst FTW!

Sometimes you can find them one here, or Ebay for cheap. I scored mine for $110 shipped to my door about 6 months ago.

The Clicking alone is pure sex lol. Click click click click click

 

is it an actual shifter from a hurst or something or just a name of something?

I just googled it. Should have done it before i asked lol

 

Hurst is the company that makes them
