Coolerworx Short Shifter & Tommy Kaira Hebi Bebi

justin_boy · 02-03-2020, 07:35 PM

Hey guys
So when you buy the Hebi Bebi shift knob, it specifies no reverse lock out

but the coolerwork short shifter has a reverse lock out, can anyone confirm if I can use the 2 together?

Best,
Justin

We do not have reverse lock out in the Z.

I know but the short shifter is

The reverse lock out on the coolerworx shifter assembly is independent of the shift knob IINM

Use whatever knob will screw onto the rod. When going into reverse you pull up on the metal catch on the shaft.
Here is a picture.

You won't be able to use the two together regardless of the lockout or not; the Hebi Bebi thread is 10x1.25 thread pattern while the Coolerworx has a 12x1.5 thread pattern.

Yes, the TWM has the normal thread pattern. But, I'd get rid of the Hebi before I got rid of the Coolerworx

Also for those how dont know, cooler works installs a washer on top of the rod and then screws on the knob, this washer will compress the top thread so you will need a tap and die set to fix this otherwise you'll be scratching your head trying to figure out why its not treading....ask me how i know...

That isn't going to work. That would work for putting a coolerworx knob on your factory shifter but not the other way around.

As stated by Zezus, as well as what I mentioned previously: 12x1.5 not 1.25.

I dont have the coolerworx yet, still in the process of ordering. ALso, Why do you say that, is the coolerworx that much better? Ive read good things about the TWM
