Mike how much are the AKS shifter bushes & are they different from our 42dd ones?

Also how much are the subfram bolts?

Do you have a short shifter too? if so which one? Been told to go for one where you can adjust the throw with the slider on the bolt

I drove Carrera2rs,s pirelli with the forge and it was like changing gear with a wooden spoon in a golden syrup tin. Bloody awful.

After looking at the ones available it just looks like a standard one with a slot milled into it.

Interesting to hear people's thoughts on the forge.  I don't mind it. With the dd42 bushes and AKS bracket bushes has a really nice feel?

I'd happily try one of your Damo to compare, Infact I was telling my mate today it's better to get one from you over forge (£££)
