Nissan CD009 shifter bracket - Series 2

    If you're swapping a CD series transmission, you're probably going to want a relocated shifter. The stock shifter sits quite far back and fairly high which makes it not work well for most applications.

   In designing our shifter we tried to keep simplicity and compactness in mind, the shifter is really not a very technical part and doesn't need to be complicated. We considered that most people are driving a W58, R154 or KA/SR transmission, all do not have reverse lock outs, so we decided to make a simple shifter, that does one thing simply, it shifts. Since none of us have ever accidentally hit reverse when up shifting, we decided that wasn't worth the increased cost.

   Keeping with a simple design also allows us to keep it low profile, at only 5/8" above the black cover plate just in front of the shifter, the height is great for fitting inside consoles or under shifter boots. This can be quite important compared to taller shifters if you want the trans tunnel sealed from road noise, heat and debris. Keeping it simple, we also managed to make it more affordable and more available, typically in stock.  

 The all new stand alone shifter bracket kit comes with all the required hardware including the shifter handle, linkage bar and bolting hardware, everything you'll need to just bolt it up and go without any other parts required, just your favorite shift knob. All the billet aluminum components are CNC machined from 6061 and assembled with plated steel hardware.

  The stock CD shifter sits quite far back and doesn't fit most swap cars. This billet shifter bracket has three positions based on your transmission and fitment requirements. The range of shifter centerlines are between 32.7" and 33.2" from the front of the bellhousing. 

   Due to the lower socket position of the CD transmission for the shifter handle engagement, some drivelines will interfere with the shifter socket. Manufacturers who use 1350 universal joints or 1350 based conversion joints WILL hit our shifter socket. While some customers have ground on the universal joints and shifter components to get clearance, this can compromise both parts. We use 1310 universal joints on our driveshafts and do not hae any problems. Any driveshaft with 1310 U-Joints will work.
