Hosed on a Kartboy short throw install
Hosed on a Kartboy short throw install
I'm up early on a saturday trying to get a kartboy short throw shift level into my 02 wrx, but i think they sent me the wrong friggin part. The part of the lever that attaches to the linkage is way too fat. Does anybody in Socal know of a shop around here that sells Kartboy?
I'd rather not reassemble my car and have to go through this after a few weeks when i get a new part from the mail order shop i bought this from.
Thanks.

i think Ferdie only sells Cobb. I searched and found his website and didn't see any kartboy. i'm off to norm reeves...they say they've got a few...they're having a rally today too, so everything's on sale.
wish me luck...

Yeah, Tom is a great guy. Once my rear sway bar link snapped and he sent me a replacment for $5 no questions asked. IIRC, they're in San Diego, so he could probably send you one quick.

They are sweet - love mine
my car is an 02 wrx and apparently, some of them are built differently? the wrx shift lever i got would not fit on my car so i had to go get a different kartboy lever. it is great how it' shortens the throws.
