Re: Difference between short shifter and long shifter?

The "Short" shifter shaft is intended to have a single 1/2" wide 1/2" hex gear placed on it and retained with an E-Clip.

The "Long" shifter shaft is intended for use with sprockets or pulleys for a further reduction after the gearbox, as such it has a longer shaft.

When you order a 3-stage ballshifter it will have the "short" shifter shaft as it has a 3rd stage gear reduction before the much longer final output shaft.

Hope that clears it up,
