has anybody tried modding the gear stick? With the gearbox rebuild the shifter seems too much forward so I was thinking of putting a bend in it to bring it further back plus it's been chopped by previous owner so I may add some more height. Anyone tried this and how'd you go? |

You could try one of the "Speedwell" type extensions, that would give you the height and might bring it back far enough? http://www.minispares.com/product/Classic/BG8119.aspx |

I seem to remember the Morris 1100 gear stick is slightly longer and has a rearward rake so can be used in place of the Mini types. morris 1100 on here would know so send him a PM if you want to know more. |

The black Mini K/Clubman/Mk2 S stick bends back further than the chrome Deluxe/Mk1 S type. |

Yes that Morris 1100 looks bent too much. Would anyone have a pic of the mk1 s type? |

I bent a Cooper S one back about another 5 degrees to suit the driving position in the Marcos. Do it cold - don't heat it up because you may damage the rubber bush, and don't bend it too far or it will interfere with the handbrake
