    not true, i had one in a trans for a long time. My first trans had over 100k miles with a short shifter. Now certain short shifters wear out depending on the material it was made of, specifically aluminum ones are junk.

At least have some balls to tell me that youre too cheap to buy or say - fuck shoot me a pm if youre too embarrassed

    Actually they are longe;, making the shift distance shorter by added leverage because of the area below the ball being longer. But they are secretly gay.

    Added leverage = more leverage and stress on the transmission parts you're shifting.

    UMMM NO. You can only put it into gear so far. Just like having a longer breaker bar to loosen a bolt, it doesn't damage the bol,t it is just easier. Just retards not used to the decreased shift distance and gait and grinding the shit out of the trans until it gives in.
