Dimentions needed!!!! vw motorsport shifter.

[baldone]

hy!

I have an ASD typ 02a transmission. Will it work without the cable to rod adapter?
Thank you

baldone- If you have an O2A its a cable shift tranny. This shifter is setup to run cable shift... you would need additional hardware to convert it over to rod shift setup

It's a shame how lazy people are, so theyd rather be given an answer, then tryin to figure it out themselves

If im not mistaken,no one asked for any dimensions. If Brian G. or anyone else asks for a dimension, I would give it to them.

No one gave me anything to help make my shifters. All the blueprints and dimensions I found were in this post, and not a single print had everything dimensioned. So your big post of all those links isn't gonna get anyone all the way to the finish line.... now what shall you do???? Use your brain??? Oh no! That would be terrible!!

I did the research on my own, and figured it out. Now if you want to be spoonfed and are too lazy to do some math or do the work yourself, then go ahead and take the easy way out and ask.

Hell, Brian G. is such an outstanding machinist, and everyone swings on his nuts, so I don't even understand why he would have to ask for a dimension, he could probably cast one and people would ride his nuts more...

So, if you are too lazy, or just can't think for yourself, gladly send me an IM and I'll walk you through how to measure. I will gladly give you dimensions, just ask

In a thread titled ''Dimensions needed!!! vw motorsport shifter'' I would expect dimensions to be present before 445 odd posts, and 15 odd pages - thats all.
As for riding ones nuts.....simple dimensions are one thing, actually making something from said dimensions is another.
I simply posted for the hope someone would read it, and save them sifting through 14 pages of not dimensions.

Dimensions seem to be now in place above though, so hopefully anyone wanting them will read the last page first.

Brian,

cool

sorry if this is a stupid question, but can these work with audi quattro 5 and 6 speed transmissions?

how about we all think about a method to do such a shifter for the rod assembly?
what i'm trying to say, is keep the orriginal rods from the tranny to the cockpit, and do an assembly that bolts on, and adjust the throw from the inside.
i've seen some of these shifters on rally mk2s we have at local hill climb races, 020 gearboxes, the rods from the tranny were just like the ones usrt sells, but the inside shifter was similar to vwms.

thank you all for the great pictures and dimensions on these nice pieces of engineering

Its not that I can't figure out the rod shift part of the shifters. My thing is I have never driven anything with a rod shift. If I had access to one and could mess around with it, I could make the rod shift part no problem...its just not a priority for me at this point

look at this one, i think this is for a rod linkage






and the stock rod linkage :

How did you design the lock out for reverse. I am working on a project for school that has internal parts machined for the internals of the trans that I would like to run with the CAE/VWMS shifter

can you please send me a cad modell of your cae shifter!?

Hello,

I am new on this forum! I come rom Slovenia, Europe.

I am also working on this topic, VW short shifter, I produce more items to define the right strokes.



If someone is interested, I can show more pictures. Now I am working on brand new design!

Very nice shifter! I would love to learn more about how you made it, and what your new design is, especially if its a more compact design that would be lighter and takes up less space. Cheers to you for your hard work.

Hey,

New design is more compact, shifter is 50 mm closer to steering wheel, shifting ratio is the same. Total weight is about 1200 g. It is completely made from aluminium. If somebody is interested in buying, I can offer it

[sicrocc]

Yes,more info please. Im running the cae shifter now,but how are you routing the cables with that setup? It seems to be missing the threaded rod on the side also.
Please enlighten me on your setup.....it is very nice looking!!

Thanx Geoff.
