Shifters

[FoMoCoSHO]

We used to change shifters all the time.  I had a Gen 2 or 3 on my Gen 4 Taurus to replace the "club" and a MKZ on my Fusion. Lately, I've been looking at parts explosions.  Haven't looked in person yet.  Will do this week.  I don't know if I want to do this.  Somebody might.  I kinda like my T.

2013 SHO with auxillary two-way button for.......whatever.

My 2013 doesn't have the shifter in diagram 3. It is the one in diagram 2. I really like the T-shifter and would love to retro it.

Now that you mention it, I don't know where that third shifter belongs.  If you have paddles, why a button?  I'll have to do some more digging.  You may be able to retro the T.

My Rental Fusion had the one like diagram 3.

Scroll down to the second pic and behold a FoMoCo pic of a 2013 with the t shifter...

The shifter in the article looks nice

Yeah, I like mine fine.  Originally, I was looking in to swapping the 13 shifter into the 12.  But, now it looks like those with 13s might want to do the T handle.  Funny how some things turn.

Besides the handle to activate the gear selector, I don't remember seeing buttons on mine.

I'm ordering the t-handle; going to see if I can get it into my car.

I really want the t-handle in my 13!

Pictures don't really show it that well, what the heck does the lever connect to?

[geswek]

The handle is like $50 bucks at Fred Beans Parts.

Not seeing it on there, link?

Let me know if this works.

Scroll all way down to "3" -- that's just handle.

$51.83 to order.

Got the black one; now I'm going out to yank my reverse light LOL.

You can't do that man.

If you had a manual--sure! How you going to engage/disengage lock out?
