Re: attaching shifter ball to shortened shifter rod

["frank n. furter" <wasserbox@yahoo.com>]

most people who cut their shifter down buy an
aftermarket shift-knob (momo, etc.) that uses some
other type of securing device - momo's have 3 lil allen
screws that hold them on, and a variety of sleeves to
fit the end of the shift rod.

I am not 100% sure (never done it) but I think if you
purchased the correct tap & die set you could re-thread
the original stick....  but it'd probably be cheaper
just to buy a new knob
