Shifter extender
Transmission and drivetrainEnglish · machine-assisted draft
An accessory fitted between a manual gear lever and its knob to raise or reposition the handgrip. It changes reach and leverage, rather than repairing worn linkage or acting as a short-shift kit. GoWesty’s Bus/Vanagon example uses a threaded extension and locating nut; compatibility depends on actual lever and knob dimensions.
