My podcaster brother in arms and I just purchased the DDM Short Throw Shifter today. Whats everyone's experience with these and how difficult is the install?
Lets talk short throw shifters!
-
I didn't do the install but I do love it.
I recommend a heavy shift handle in conjunction with it.

Perfect, I already have one I bought last season, I do love it!

It's common knowledge that a weighted knob will improve the performance of your short throw.
That's what SHE said! (sorry guys)

Agreed, i have the same, love it. It's one of those must installs, that you didn't know you needed, until you have it, or drove a friends who has it.
Dave@DDMWorks did the updated instructions go out on new products about doing the twirl dance to make sure all is smooth before installing? We should name that the twirl maneuver until you name it something better
If not, can you post them, I don't see this updated on your site yet.

The first mod anyone should make is the Hawk 5.0 brake pads and the second mod is the DDM short shifter. 101,000 miles and counting on Sling I, just starting to put miles on Sling II

Sling 1 vs. Sling 2...

Yea, I also have both of those. Speaking of that FED EX just delivered 5 more empty 50 cal. ammo cans. The little brown truck just left 1,000 rds. of Green tip

Love my DDM short throw shifter. Install was very easy and it is one of my mods that I really recommend every sling owner get
Also agree with getting a good heavy shift knob, I went through several different knobs and finally settled on a 1320 Performance stainless steel teardrop - 1320 Performance SS shift knob

the last few weeks when it has been 115 plus it has gotten pretty hot, but not so much as to be a problem, but then again I dont just rest my hand on it either, only grab it long enough to make a shift.
as a side note my wife knitted a little cover for it to use when I park it, but I don't really use it

Will the factory sparco shift knob(comes standard on the slr models) fit on this short throw shifter?

yes it will but as many have pointed out, a weighted knob will feel better.

I agree with all said, short throw shifter is a great add, I'm using DDM billet shift knob.

I think that is the 2nd mod I did on mine. Short throw shifter with the Ultimate shift knob. Gives it a complete different feeling. Makes it a joy to drive stick.
