[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 440139, member: 18789"] It’s been a while, years ago I looked into their 231 shifters. There was a cable one and a non cable. The non cable was very similar to what we already have, except instead of the stick slipping on with a clip and isolator, it was a clamp that the stick slid into and then tightened the bolt to clamp the stick in place. The cable version was for TJs and was so different that it wouldn’t be worth trying on the YJ (IMO). The non cable version, not very many people had it so not much real world reviews, but the one or two I found said it was difficult to get it shifting well. Also, bending up the stick to your liking is probably a pain. At the time of this research, I didn’t realize how the factory one worked. My isolator had long disintegrated and so the stick would wobble around and would come right off the stub if I pulled on it. Eventually I realized the stock one was easy to fix so I went with that route. Personally I think the stock shifter works great, only thing is occasionally you have to replace the isolator/clip and taking the mess apart with the boots is not exactly enjoyable. [/QUOTE]
