AM Gen 1 Shifter

Post by Sunny »

I've talked to a couple of peeps on CD, especially the ones that said that the AM GEN1 shifters work, and they said that we should try it first because it worked for them. So...yeah.

How would it work? We can't shift to neutral cause its in the middle?

That's a good question.

We can hold only enough to PSI to kick out, but not back into the other gear.

Another way might be to actually go in and REMOVE one of the gears. I'm not sure whether this is as easy as it sounds, but if it's necessary...

I don't see why we couldn't. It usually comes in pieces, so it is probably possible to take it apart.
