Default TWM or Ralco RZ Short Shifter Possible shifter defect??

Hey guys. Does this look right to you? Does your TWM or Ralco RZ shifter do this? I know my stock one doesn't.

[Edit:] Sorry the video wasn't working earlier. Youtube was being a B!tch.

This particular shifter is the Ralco RZ Short Shifter. I reached out to them by email. I received a reply within minutes!!!! Now THAT is customer service. They are sending me out a replacement, ASAP at no cost. Woot Woooo!!

Being as how I have the Corksport SSP, I may just switch back to the stock shifter and sell the new Ralco Short Shifter. I will see how the Stock shifter is with the SSP, before I decide, I guess. I know the Speed3's stock shifter isn't ultra tall. But, I still feel like a truck driver with it.

You install the new RZ yet? If so is it doing the same?
Or did you go back to stock?

I might buy the Replacement off you if your not using it.


You should VIP yourself to get access to mad awesomeness in the for sale section and be able to Officially sell/buy stuff.

Yes, I got the new one installed just last weekend. It is waaaaay better. The plastic collars were out of spec or something on that original. Ralco asked for it back to review and see what the issue was so that it could be corrected, if needed. But, my replacement is 100% all good. I could not be happier. Especially after the Corksport 80 RMM.

The only thing that sucks is the stock shift boot bunches up to much and sorta gets in the way of shifting to reverse and makes rubbing noises. I have a TWM leather short shift boot on the way. I hate pleather rubbing noises with a passion. Lol

A lil leather conditioner (armor all leather wipes ect) stops boot noises even on pleather.

Glad it worked out for you!

RMM makes world of difference.
