beech performance short shifter vs. jim king.

[rwdanthony]

does anyone have a comparison review among the two? i cant find a direct comparison.

what im looking for is which has a shorter throw? beech is said to be 60% short in throw. and the jim king has a 33% shorter throw? so in this case beech obviously has the shorter throw. right?

but also which one sits lower? the jim king has a variable/adjustable height adjustment. but still not sure which one sits lower.

JMPO, but if it isn't a C's or TRD, then it's just a cheap imitation.......
Might as well just put some Marlin Crawler shift bushings in it, and shorten the lever yourself.

The beech has a real nice short throw feeling to it but it is pricey. I dont know if theres anyone else that has this problem but down shifting into second is ridiculous and almost impossible which is why i slapped on my stock shifter for now. Lol

I've got the Beech shifter, and it works well. After I had the 7MGTE rotating assembly balanced, the shifter no longer vibrates on the seat. The Beech does have the pivot point changed. Shifting into second on the R154 requires me to rev match while down shifting, then it shifts into second w/o difficulty. Is this what you meant?
I thought the syncros in second were on their way to wearing out... Van
