Kilduff or Gennie floor shifters
« on: September 29, 2016, 07:35:52 pm »
Anyone run A Kilduff Twister shifter or a Gennie Lo-Stik shifter in heir truck? These are automatic transmission shifters. The Kilduff mounts inside the vehicle like a B&M or a Hurst whereas the Gennie mounts directly on top of the transmission and comes up through the floor through a 3" hole.

i wouldn't run either in a truck, but i think the lightining rods in a car would be great.

Well I have a bench seat so my options are limited. I'm I use a Hurst or B&M I would really have to reach down and shift. I personally don't like the look of either of those style shifters on a raised platform so I could reach them. Would look tacky to me.

i thought B+M made a tall shifter specifically for trucks?   Don't have time to look for it now.

They do, but they are still somewhat short from what I can tell.

I looked...do they have one with a reverse lock out?    i had one jump in reverse from park in a car years ago.

The Lokar stuff is great for looks but they perform like doo-doo.
