Oh thats a shame I thought this could have been a nice cheap alternative from buying a a 2lt baybox! Still lovely-I would love to change my gears linkage to cable as mine even though mine is good it is still very much like stering soup! _________________ www.faltownskateboards.com |

shame it wont fit a DK as well or I'd have had one.... gotta re-do my crewys linkage anyway so this would have been a nice solution.
Tontie - if you fancy having a look at a DK box for any future development, and your not a million miles from bristol - gimme a shout as I've got one thats going into my van soon... _________________ '72 Ratty Bug - Subaru EJ20 Turbo motor. |

If anyone was interested in trying out the cable gearshift, I have a trade stand at Volksworld.
Please come along say hi, I'll have my van there with it fitted, so anyone who wants to try it out, please look me up. |

The kit would be a complete bolt on installation, everything except the gear knob. Took me 4 hours to fit including removing old linkage (first time), guess a skilled person would be less than 2 hours. Target price for complete system would be £300 plus carriage. Could dispatch anywhere in the World & have Credit Card facility. |

I met Anton at the volksworld and experienced the shifter systems he has available. Had a nice sales display with the shifters setup on a number of different boxs. Was interesting feeling the difference between a box designed for a cable shifter and the boxs without.
Either way top notch bits of kits and I'd recommend them.
Its a shame as I'd already bought my shifter before meeting Anton otherwise I'd have done brought differently.
Try sending him a PM. _________________ Think......
