no there are none. i beleive there are a few of us who have hacked at ours. you lose your reverse lock but it doesn't bother me and i personally like the look and feel of it now much better.

I would hack mine but I wouldnt feel comfortable without the reverse lockout. Also, didnt someone say the stock **** couldnt be used with a chopped shifter? Another disadvantage for me because I really like the stock shift ****.

There is a way to do it and retain both lock-out ring and stock shift ****. Its been done on a 5.5 before.
