Description
Worn, faded shift knobs kill the look of an otherwise clean build - and cheap replacements crack, fade, or spin loose within a season. MDL's 6-Speed Black Shift Ball solves both problems with a high-impact polymer resin formulation specifically engineered for the automotive industry. This isn't generic plastic - it's a performance-grade compound designed to resist stress cracking with age while handling the torque and temperature extremes of hard driving.
The white 6-speed shift pattern is subsurface - meaning it's embedded beneath the outer layer, not printed or painted on top. It won't wear off from palm contact, won't fade from UV exposure, and won't peel at the edges. The 16mm x 1.50 brass master insert is equally overbuilt, exceeding the auto industry's specification of 200 ft. lbs. static pull and 20 ft. lbs. twist torque. Precision machining and polishing deliver a high-gloss finish that looks as good as it feels.
The 16mm thread pitch fits most aftermarket performance shifters directly. If your shifter uses a different thread size, MDL stocks thread adapters to match - just know your shifter's thread pitch when ordering so we can recommend the right reducer. This universal approach makes the shift ball compatible with Ford, GM, and Mopar applications when properly matched to your shifter.
At 4 ounces with a 1-7/8" diameter, this shift ball delivers ergonomic comfort and balanced weight for crisp, confident throws. Made in the USA with the quality standards serious builders demand.
