Install Hurst Shifter

I have watched the videos, and read the instructions. Does anyone have any good ways of getting the car up in the air to get under there! I am a big guy and want to do it my driveway. I have ride up ramps, jack stands and jack. How did you do it? Thanks

I used 2 jack stands on the driver's side of the car front and back. The only issue was the lower boot, as stated by others. PITA to get back on.

I suggest use your ramps for the rear tires...set the emergency brake...jack the front up with floor jack and block of wood from front if possible and use two jackstands in front... I couldn't do it with just one end up...good luck...

Dynamat

Not to quiet the shifts - but to eliminate rattle upon acceleration & yes I did.....

I used ramps. Lower boot was a pain. The dynamat comes with the shifters now. If you contact them they should send it to you.
