Default Toughts on JHM short shift please...

Looking to get a short shifter and the JHM looks bomber. I don't see any reason not to get it. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

not that happy with it. Had to have it adjusted twice already and when I called JHM to ask some questions after I bought it he never returned my calls.

That's what I'm afraid of, constant readjustments. Can anyone else chime in?

Default Everyone who has purchased a JHM shifter for their B5 S4 has had zero problems. Also, Jayson's

support has usually been next to none.

I love mine. It takes some time to get it adjusted so that 1st and reverse work perfectly. (Ryne at GMG did mine at it took about an hour for him to get it perfect). But It's the best SS kit I've had in any car. No slop and like a rifle bolt action. I have a barely used Stratmosphere for sale (cheap) if anyone is interested.

Default Agree with mczars4...JHM shifter is awesome

Mine was installed at GMG and had no problems. Agree with everything he said. I've also driven an RS4 that had the Stratmosphere shifter and didn't like it. JHM has that great mechanical feel. Love the analogy "rifle bolt action."
