so heres the deal... i bought the b&m short throw shifter for my truck, then a couple of weeks later it gets broken into, and they steal the knob off of the shifter... i called b&m to get the part # and they said that they do not sell the knob seperately, i would have to buy the whole shifter again.... does anyone know of a company that sells a knob for the odd ball size threads that these shifters have???

They lied to you. The billet round one that comes with the shifter is expensive though. Like 40 something. http://www.jegs.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/ProductDisplay?prrfnbr=1904&prmenbr=361

those are the 2 that i mentioned to him, he says neither of them have the right size threads... he said our threads were m16 x 1.5 or something like that... he said only the t handle would fit our shifter!

I have a B&M knob for the short throw shifter. I have never installed it so it's in mint (new) condition, and I'm willing to part with it if want it.

PM me...

I called and the guy I talked to said they don't have the exact replacement and said that it is metric and a 1.50 or some shit. I say screw B&M then.
