It's a simple design and if I'm not mistaken ,the base component has aircraft origins .
I've seen 30 year old Cheetah's that still work flawlessly.
Had one in my own Stocker .

I have been looking at these and it appears they are out of stock. In all fairness I only checked Jegs and Summit. I believe the part number is 70012. Heading to Vegas next month. I might have to focus and squeeze the trigger for 3rd.

PS, The BBB is cool but out of my pay grade.

Chad: just put a B&M Pro Ratchet in it and Rule the World! -Al

Chad ,you can buy direct from Turbo Action . Jegs ,Summit and others are not stocking a lot of parts and are drop shipping direct from the manufacturer.
Although the prices might be slightly higher and you'll pay shipping ,at least you can get the part.
I've had to go this route with a lot of parts in the past year.

I'm also a fan of B&M pro ratchet.

With a forward pattern 3 spd I've messed up the squeezing the lever, the worst is when you ease off the lever and end up pushing it to neutral. I've used the B&M Pro Ratchet and it's a great shifter. Turbo Action is good and does away with squeezing the lever.
