my Pro 5.0 thread

[coop5885]

ok, well i did a search and came up empty.
I got a pro 5.0 from the guy who had that car before me, and i dont have any of the bolts to bolt it into the car. So my first question is can i re-use the ones that are in the factory hurst?

Question number two, what is the procedure(sp?) for adjusting the stops in a pro 5.0?

[Assbreeze]

Adjusting the stops is easy.

For the top one, put the car in 3rd. Bring the stop up to the stick, then back it off a bit and tighten. Do the same for the other one, just use 4th instead.

(EDIT: Make sure the car will go into and stay in all the gears, sitting still and driving. The first time I installed mine I put the console back together before realizing I forgot to adjust the stops, and had to tear it all down again.)

As far as the bolts go, I'd just buy some new ones that are the same size as the ones that came with the Pro 5.0.

but what size is that??

[Assbreeze]

You've got me. Shouldn't be too hard to find out, though.

You could probably call them and ask the size.

how thick is the base plate from the hurst to the pro 5.0? if there comperable then i'd go ahead and use them.

i would get on the horn and order some bolts from pro 5.0, until they come in i wouldnt see why you couldnt re-use the stockers:)

My Pro 5.0 didn't come with new bolts. I just used the bolts from the stock shifter with a little lock-tite.:dunno:

[bRa_DeN]

lock-tite is a must with whatever bolts you decide to go with;)

ya, i installed it today with some locktite.

i love it, its the best feeling shifter ive felt
