you should sell those dssrs dude

Thanks, I'll take that as a compliment, but I dont think I could match the price of current offers. there were a few hours of machine time. If i would teach myself how to setup a CNC lathe, these could be knocked out much faster.

This was 100% manual machined, But I could make them for people who have custom selector lengths for various swaps.

If all the shifter parts were sent, I could make them all fit together perfect so no plastic washers are needed.

Mmm bronze. This selector joint is for sale if anyone wants one

Upgraded my shifter.

Machined a DSSR out of 2" solid 416 stainless and drilled out the stupid plastic in the selector joint and pressed in bearing grade bronze. I used bronze because i put in a brand new selector joint when i did the swap. After about a month i pulled the trans to replace the seals and the plastic was already worn and sloppy, making a terribly loose shifter.

I matched each parts dimensions, so no plastic washers are needed. My UUC EVO3 shifter fits snug in the DSSR with zero play, the pins are a super snug fit.


I cant wait to bang some gears with this. It should last forever too.

Chance your build thread is amazing. Good work too. Im wanting to do a clean swap like this as well. Glad to know that there is some one local that can help me with pointers

Thanks!

It really wasnt as hard as I thought it would be. Especially considering this is my first swap.

Let me know if you ever have any questions

Lovely. I noticed that it's all pretty much behind the head and the top bolt of the trans

yep. I used a large pry bar to "open up" the area were the trans tunnel meets the firewall. There may also be a part of the engine block that sticks way out on the drivers side that will hit. I saw no use for the part and cut it off since it was easier than trying to hammer some clearance in.

I did the same thing. It took hours to keep moving the engine and hammering then test fitting, them moving it again and hammering. I had to do this a number of times.

[navytapaul]

Yep, have mine in the wrong position. Guess I'll be moving it back this weekend.

Please excuse all the random wires and masking tape. Its still needs a lot of finishing.
