OGP Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Jeff from Bad medicine motorsports came by yesterday and picked up my car for a tranny freshening and some off season maintenance. Sand sports magazine is going to do an article on the installation of an AJS sequential shifter on a mendi trans, and needed a donor car. Well Ive been wanting to go seqential shift, So I gave Jeff the go ahead to install this new shifter. Is there anything about this shifter that I might be concerned about? I am going with the reverse lockout feature so accidental reverse is not possible. Any input would be appreciated. Quote
EY3BA11 Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Everything i have read said everyone loved them. They were a bit tight to fit on rear engine cars. I know a few have put them in their Desert Dynamics cars and had to masage the torsion housing a little bit to get it to fit right. They claim the nose cone that comes with them isnt any longer than a sock mendi cone but they actually are when you add the box on the back of it for the hydraulic lines. Other than that everyone seems to love em. Quote
OGP Posted July 16, 2007 Author Posted July 16, 2007 Cool. Im looking forward to, No more missed shifts. I wanted to do this on my tatum. Might have helped me just a bit trying to keep up with Randog...... Quote

Sick Dayz Posted August 1, 2007 Posted August 1, 2007 I’m putting one in my car, but I won’t have it together until the end of September (I hope). I have talked with a few guys that run them and they have nothing but positive things to say about them… :freakin_nuts: Quote
