Anyone here running a Kilduff Lightning Rod shifter?

Stumbled upon these while doing some shifter research

Dude sounds like a bit of a nut, but the shifters look to be solid :cool:


I'm curious about reverse/park lock-out though :confused:

Doesn't look like there's a second action to put the main lever into reverse or park...

Also, could you actually use that 3rd lever to go from 3rd to neutral at speed or would you have to slow down first since it will have to go through 2nd and 1st before hitting neutral with a reverse manual valve body :confused:

Wow what a nice selection of shifters! I'm really impressed at many of the styles, some of which I didn't even know were made.

If my long term goal wasn't to change back my 727 to a 4 speed, I would without a doubt consider one of these shifters. The look factor alone would be sooo cool!

If you decide on one, let us know and post a pic. You'd have the coolest shifter in all of Florida!

It's sure a cool shifter.
Have a CRT-4(JohnCope) reverse VB in my RR and use the Cheetah shifter.
Works gr8.
Made my own extra Reverse lock-out . Just in case.

Not sure if the Cheetah will stay in long after seeing this one.
Thanks for sharing Snake eater.
