Ripper ****

I have a B&M ripper. I got it used, so of course it didn't have a ****. What I need to know is where can I get a **** for this thing? What is the thread size? I tried the universal *****, but the threads are too small. I can't even get it on the shifter without the inserts. The shaft looks like it is at least 1/2" in dia.

B+M sells ***** specifically for our shifters. So do others. it is the same size as the stock shifter. I think if you do a search you will be able to find the size, then go from there.

Mine has some cheesey plastic reducer that threads into the **** and then that threads onto the stick. Not great quality but maybe something you can find at an autoparts store.

My stick **** had no threads. It just slid on the stick. I have a B&M handle that won't thread on. I haven't found a B&M **** that will fit because I don't know what size the threads are. I just want to make sure I get one that will fit.

As far as I know the threads on the B+M are the same as stock. I believe it is 16mm x 1.5. I hope this helps. Also that is the of the T56 ***** also so if you find some of those they should work.

That helps. My stock **** was attached to a sleeve that slid over the shifter. I haven't seen it for about 3 years though. So, I don't know if it was screwed onto the sleeve of if it was part of the ****. When I modified my stock shifter, I used the B&M t-handle. So, when I got the ripper the stock one was long gone. At least I'll be able to find something now. Thanks
