Title: Anyone know where to buy a shift knob?
Post by: Ckaz21 on June 19, 2014, 11:22:32 PM: Looking for a white shift knob for the forward/reverse shifter arm. The only ones I can find online and in store are the big ones made for car shifters...

my Coors tap I had to drill and tap for the correct thread pattern. If I remember right the tap handle was 3/8- 16. I drilled out the old thread insert, filled the hole back up with epoxy and then drilled, and tapped for a 3/8 24 insert.

But it was worth it, right?
