Im very happy with my Tri-Ax. Honestly im out of one gear and back on the throttle hard in a fraction of a second... and the way it just pops into 3rd is just fantastic!

So yes its worth it
Before my Tri- Ax I went with a cheaper shifter from american muscle and it just sucked. It was too far way, sounded lound, and just felt cheap. So spend the money and order that Tri-Ax

I have one. I wasn't "blown away" by how wonderful it was, but it's definitely worth the money. A lot better than stock, and shifts are WAY more precise and smooth and it WANTS to go into 3rd. I haven't missed a shift since I've had it.

Take Reggie's advice... Go to the American Muscle section of this forum and find AMNick. Send him a PM and see what he can do for you.

How do you adjust these things? Or can you adjust these things? My Tri-Ax shifter has always felt somewhat hard (certainly not smooth) when shifting into 3rd and it feels like there is a detent or something that it has to go past when shifting into 2nd. 4th is no problem. Seems like it should work better (smoother) than it does. Thanks.

Just about anything is better than the stock shifter, I haven't heard about any issues about it.
