- Sorry this took so long, I was dealing with a health issue and was not able to work on the truck, But I'm Back.
So I finally found a short shifter for my 59 F150 Flareside, in this video I will show you how to install it and whether or not it's worth spending $125.00 for it, they claim it will give you a 40% shorter shift then the stock one, it fits the Ford/Mazda 5 speed.

7:02 GLAD you brought up the pin issue, you are the only one that mentioned this, I think the reason WHY your ping is slightly too big is because you got a SAE pin but need a Metric one
Thanks
Should of set the camera during the drive where we can ACTUALLY SEE the movement of the shifter !
Thanks
*Finally ordered this shifter and got it today after doing my research. Just rewatched your video and plan to install tomorrow, not too happy about the tiny, and I do mean TINY shift ball included. I was wondering if you could make an updated video with the custom shift stick you made?*
Actually I did, heres the link ruclips.net/video/doMGKWTY_8s/видео.html
I cant wait to get this installed!
I am sure you will love it, I know I do
Ed i could watch you every day wish my truck was stickYour great keep it up.Oh i finish painting my truck 2 tone very happy with the paint thanks again bill
Thats great, you got pic's posted somewhere, I'd love to see it
@@AintScaredGarage Ed do you have a way for me to send you a picture used rustoleum paint total paint job cost 125.00 i didn,t want tp spend 500.00 for paint
man i love these videos.
Well thanks, I'll keep making them, LOL, hopefully I'll get better at it as well LOL
22:44 Putting grease where the pins go?? Most put loc tite on them where they won't fall out
As for the pins, the top of the shifter has a lip on it that keeps them from falling out on the outside and the shifter itself keeps them falling out on the inside
8:47 Should of used a file, BUT you are grinding OFF the surface hardening
Thanks
20:00 HOPE all that grease you packed in there DOESN'T get in the trans, MIXING TYPES of lube as different as that grease vs: trans fluid screws up the trans fluid, did the mfg tell you it is OK to pack that thing? Does the instructions state to do so.
Well I've said it once and I'll say it again, sometimes I don't do what they tell me to so You should follow all instructions, frankly I don't even remember the instructions as this was a long time ago that I did the job, but the shifter is still great and I love it
Quick question about that pin. Was that broken pin a solid pin or a "c" roll pin you pulled out?
It was solid, ill try to figure out what the correct size is, but what I got was stainless steel pins and I think they will be strong enough, I don't know if roll pins are strong enough
I'm thinking gear wrenches would make things a bit easier for you.
Thanks
I wonder if this is gonna work on my 97 2.3 ranger, shifter pins shot so I need to refresh it all anyway
If its the 5 speed mazda trans it should, but check the website first let them tell you if it will or not
What's a good asking price for our trucks? Have had a couple 10k offer's on mine. Wondering if it's worth selling.
10 Grand sounds like a good price, but I dont want to steer you wrong, the way I see it is, how much do YOU like the truck, is worth 10 Grand to you, if I'm offered 10 I would counter at oh I dont know, 12.5 and see what shakes out, if I was offered 10 G I might just sell, but I dont know, 10 G means I would then have the money to go look for a 59 F100 Project, and have the money to do the project, I like the 59 and would like to have one one day, so it comes down to what is it you want, is there another project that you always wanted, and could 10 G buy it and finance the project as well, these are the things I think of, so you got to do some serious thinking about how much you like the truck and what you would do with money if you sold it.
I hope this helps you, that truck really looks nice, you did a great job on it.
very nice
Thanks, this thing does what they say, I am amazed at how it shifts now
I've tried finding one of these short shifters, no luck. Where did you find yours?
Think is in the description, you can get it here directly from Core ruclips.net/user/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa0NJLTVCanpVX1FuVzBNZmFMTTB3emlPRmQ0QXxBQ3Jtc0tta05POERCR2hRVGhHVVNKR29uUlN4Y084THJ4bEpRNWJpQ28wN2Z1T0UwUkYxd3c3bjFYVDRmQ05MWXozYXZmS1VtVXluWHJvZHFTZzhyR3N5cHZ3T29Od2w5bWhia3hQWFFwZ2dpOFN4Q3Bpb3p5Yw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fcore-shifters.com%2Fcollections%2Fshifters-for-f150%2Fproducts%2Fcore-shifter-base-for-stock-stick-1988-1996-ford-f-150-5-speed-m5r2%3Fvariant%3D32133380898934&v=xl9HH4bV56M

*This only cost you $125 when you bought it?! Up to $219 now! $329 with a replacement shift stick and ball!*
Sorry to hear that, but I would do it again even at that price, I love that shifter, I made a custom stick for mine out of chain, thanks for letting us know
@@AintScaredGarage Yeah, me too! At least I know you'd still do it at the current price. I'm debating the CORE or HURST for $100 more..
@@AintScaredGarage what size pin did you use to fix the stock shift stick?
Where did you purchase this short shifter ?
Well I found the link again and I'll put it below, but you'll have to contact them on whether or not there getting them back in, they seem to be sold out.

What is the benefit of a short shifter? I mean, I can see how how can select gears quicker, but IRL, you still have to wait for the revs to drop to engage the next gear...or you have excess synchro/gearbox/driveline/etc wear.
It doesn't seem like it'd help me drive my truck any faster. It might help me drive _a friend's_ truck faster, provided he wasn't a real good friend to begin with.
If you like the long shift and see no advantage (and there may be no actual advantage to having a short shift) then it would be a total waste of time and money for you to do this, it's just a personal preference, I love the thing and the shift is so much more accurate (to me anyway) that I don't regret it one bit, But it's probably not for you.
I mean, in my Ranger, when I shift, I hold the stick shifter at the gear I’m going to until it falls in. I don’t just stick it in immediately. This saves synchros. So does this shifter still easily allow for that?
How has this been holding up nine months later?
Also will this same model work in a 5 speed?
Mine is a 5 speed Masda Trans and it works as good today as it did when I installed it, I did put a glob of red and tacky grease in the top of it when I put it together, but it seems to be built well
Feelin’ good about my 5 speed
I'm telling you, you wont believe it, this is one of the best upgrades I ever did on Strappy
