This is an medium length 13inch aftermarket replacement manual shifter for 2006.5+ Ram 6-speeds. Hand machined and Tig welded solid 304 Stainless Steel. Overall length is 13 with a factory bend. It is about 3inch inches longer than the factory set up. If you're looking for an improved smoother shift this is the perfect mix of a comfortable shift with the same factory throw set-up. Shifts are much easier and stronger since the 5/8inch diameter solid Stainless does not flex like factory. Includes 30 oz. 304 SS solid weight welded to the bottom to allow smooth effortless shifts. NO rubber isolator. This shifter is specifically designed to replace shifters that have broken at the damper point.
