Review on TCI 616541 FAST GATE Shifter by Josh Endricko

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Poor quality, failed after a couple of weeks

column replaced with FAST-GATE shifter, worked for a couple of weeks, then stopped turning on overdrive (there are 700R4). I shifted gears but missed the upshift and immediately went into neutral. I've tried downshifting and even just starting in overdrive but it just won't work. The choice was either Drive or Neutral. I don't know what went wrong but I was still unhappy with the switch so I switched back to column shifting. I will probably buy a B&M derailleur to replace this one. I don't care about shifting, not smooth shifting. Shifts are fine, accelerating 1-2-3-4, but engaging and disengaging from park or reversing isn't smooth. This is not the first installation after changing trading rooms, so you know how a good system should work. I installed a B&M ratchet shifter in my car a few years ago and it has been a pleasure to use.

Pros
