t-20 easy shift

[thejunkman]

Does anyone know where is a good place to get springs and all the parts to make a t -20 shift kit

[thebuggyman1]

I did it on a maxIV a couple years ago with springs I had laying around.......I wish I hadn't. The springs do make shifting easier than a stock set up, but it is still possible to have only one side engaged when you take off. Splitting the shifter is a far better way to go. One of these days I will have to tear mine back down and throw in that second lever and rod

Is there any videos on how to do split shift on a max 2

Hi Guys
Does that make it better to get in gear? i find it sometimes hard to get from neutral in to gear forward or backwards! find rocking helps lol!! but not good.

Wiggy:
When you split the shifter, you are only trying to put one side in gear at a time. This makes it MUCH easier.

I was able to do the split shift mod on my Max II. I am not as handy as Buggyman but it works just the same.

Hi
Thanks for pictures, so am I right in thinking you have cut the rod ,then a bit of tube to bridge both ends, then welding a lever on the other part?

thanks for the pictures cbass did you cut your floorboard to make it easier to get at the battery as well?

[CBass]

Yepp that is what I did to make my split shift. Junkman, I did cut my floorboard. I will look in my galley to see if I can find the picture of how I cut it but it does make it alot earier to get to your battery.
