*** For OE replacement see the complete kits instead. ***

*** Pic shows a different base for newer Dodge trucks. Similar concept but with lower stub and baseplate features for this trans model. ***

Shifter base for custom conversions using NP A535 (aka NV2500) transmissions sourced from:

• 1987-1992 Dodge Dakota w/ 4 cyl (2.2L or 2.5L)
• 1987-1991 Dodge Dakota w/ 3.9L V6

• 1988-1991 Dodge Ram trucks (150-250 series) w/ 3.9L V6 only
• NOT FOR USE IN THESE VEHICLES - see complete kits
• Does NOT FIT any V8 or Diesel, newer model years, or any other model

A Hurst stick is required (NOT included, sold separately). Other brands and homemade sticks are discouraged. Stick mount has 3/8"-24 threaded holes spaced 7/8" apart on center + mating serrations for a Hurst stick on one face. Due to larger mounting threads (3/8"-24), sticks that use 8mm mounting bolts (most OE, "non-TKO" Lokar, others) will not work. Lokar TKO sticks can be mounted but only to the smooth side of the stub. To select the proper parts:

• Wait until new transmission is installed to buy shifter parts
• Remove existing shifter base if present
• Sit in vehicle, in driving position, with all interior trim (dash, console, etc) in place
• Define desired knob location in space (neutral position):
• Measure height from base flange to desired knob location = overall height
• Measure side & rear offsets from receptacle bore to desired knob location
• See this diagram for clarification
• Study the Hurst stick page for shapes that meet your needs
• Stick mount height = 4.6" (height from base flange to stick bolt hole)
• Only available in one fulcrum height, for a 10-16" stick length
• (Stick length = point-to-point distance from mount hole to knob thread)
• Check overall height (stick height + mount height = overall height)
