The MGW Short Throw Shifter is engineered to deliver a superior shifting experience for your 1983-2004 Ford Mustang, compatible with T45/T5 transmissions. Constructed from durable billet aluminum with a heavy-duty cast aluminum base, this shifter is built to withstand the demands of both competition racing and daily driving. This shifter boasts a high-performing racing spec design that reduces throw distance for quicker, more precise gear changes. It features adjustable shift stops and return springs, allowing you to fine-tune the performance to your specific driving style. The dual mounting points offer adjustability for shifter height, further enhancing driver comfort and control. The design also allows for the continued use of your stock shift knob, maintaining an integrated interior look. Installation is straightforward with a painless, mod-free, and drill-less procedure, making it accessible for DIY enthusiasts and professional mechanics alike. The compact design, updated for 2016, streamlines installation by fitting fully assembled within the car's oval cutout, saving significant time. MGW emphasizes quality, with this shifter proudly made in the USA in a state-of-the-art facility.
