Stainless steel adapter is much stronger than the multitude of 3D
printed adapter options in plastic. Have confidence when you shift!
For those in any doubt this listing does not include the sim gearbox :)
The problem:
I want to put a real gearknob on my driving force Logitech Shifter.
The same shifter used for the G29, the G920 and G923 variations of the
Logitech wheel.
The Logitech OEM gearknob is made of plastic and reduces the realism when your racing or drifting on tarmac or mud.
My original solution to the problem was to turn to my 3D printer.
Even
when I printed in the strongest material (Carbon impregnated) it didn't pass my usual
strength test and a number of designs snapped or wobbled after a while.
I moved to stainless steel to replicate the OEM look and to give the design an inherent strength vs plastic
The gear knob that I have sourced has Mugan branding. Its 100% aluminium and has a diameter of 27.6mm and is 85mm high
Fitting Instructions
Gently pry the plastic cap off of your Logitech gear shifter using a flat blade.
Use a Philips screwdriver to undo the screw underneath and remove the OEM knob
Screw the adapter into place. Use the slot at the top to secure
Add your choice of M18x1.5 gear knob.
Other Mods to complement this shifter Modification
See my other Listing to increase the resistance of the shifter or to add a sequential feel.
There are adapters in stainless steel for M10, M12 and M18 gearknob threads
