Does anyone know, for sure, what the thread type/size is for our shift knobs?

Thanks.

1/2-13 i think.... could be wrong... but 99% sure. just put a ruler to it, and meaure how many threads over one inch.. if its 13, then its a 1/2-13.. most common.

Bet you're asking this 'cause ya want a Hurst T-handle-am I right? Well, I do and I'm waiting to hear a definitive answer to your question- good lux, hope someone knows!

I believe it is 7/16 x 20

upslayer - exactly. I ordered the metric universial version, which goes up to 12mm. It is too small.

Please post if you find out.

By the way, the T-handle I got looks great. Someone else posted that it was built shoddily. The one I got was fine.

Well checked mine,and it is a Metric for certain. Thread OD measures .467 dia.,sure not a 1/2-13,even though that size nut will go on part way. Wish I was up on my Metrics,but I don't use them that often. An M12x1.75 should be about right.

Does the Hurst handle 'finish' reasonably match the alum satin theme finish of the other Bullitt (I mean MGW) parts?

I was the one who sent the T-handle back to the shop. It was junk! Maybe their QC is weak. The part had rough grinder marks and had sharp edges. Nothing I'd want to wrestle with.

I'd expected a satin finish.

Anyway- I have MGW's knob.

sorry about the false info about the 1/2-13... i havent looked at it, and i was assuming... yep "ASS-U-ME"...i know... :sad:

my apologies...

 

[MrSteed]

Yes, it matches the MGW pieces well. So, is it safe to say that the thread size is 7/16 X 20?

 

[MrSteed]

I called George. Its m12 x 1.75


Mus408 was right.
