SOLD: NIB kartboy short shifter + goodies - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

$215 NIB Kartboy Short Shifter.

Everything is new, but this kit did NOT include a rear shifter bushing. I will include my own rear shifter bushing (lightly used, it's poly...not like it wears) with the kit. Kit includes rear subframe bushings (not sure if KB ever released these, but he did make prototypes) like the Whiteline ones. I am also including the OEM boot that tends to tear during install, ~$10 value.

This is a GREAT shifter! I have it myself and love it! GLWS!

Will it fit with an aluminum driveshaft?

That I do not know. It would be best to ask Kartboy, he's very responsive over email. I believe he DID have one on his car during development.

One person reported an issue with an aluminum driveshaft and the shifter, turns out he didn't install the shifter correctly.

I have a kartboy shifter and rear bushing installed with my 3" axle exchange aluminum driveshaft and have no issues with rubbing.

Thanks for that info!

You might read on the forum here about a member that had some difficulty with his driveshaft and this shifter but it was an install issue as the forum discovered in helping the member troubleshoot. But the information is still out there and might come up in a search so I wanted folks to be aware.

GLWS OP I have heard good things about this part. Wish I could afford it right now.

Everybody dropping knowledge, thanks!

Nobody dropping cash.
