Why Are MonsterKnobs™ The Toughest Shift Knob Anywhere?
MonsterKnobs™ shift knobs are cast from Crosslinked Aldehyde Resin (CAR™). This material is strong, durable, and looks great even after years of use. The secret to its toughness is simple: Once cured, the resin in the knob becomes one large molecule! Heat resistant to 300°F, MonsterKnobs™ stay cool in summer and warm in winter, under the most demanding conditions.
I Want A Heavy Shift Knob. How Heavy Are Yours?
Our knobs weigh approximately 105 to 112 grams ... or about 1/4 pound (4 oz.) as noted. They are a little heavier than many factory knobs, but are not designed or marketed as a heavy aftermarket knob. We do not agree with the current fad of having extremely heavy shift knobs that weigh a pound or more. We feel these are potentially dangerous and bad for transmissions, and we WILL NOT sell knobs this heavy. Extremely heavy knobs can possibly close the gap between the shifter rail and the gears, causing damage to the gears in much the same way as the bad habit some drivers have of resting their hands on the shift knobs constantly. When the gap closes, the transmission fluid can no longer lubricate these parts. Really heavy knobs also run the risk of bending shift forks by creating too much leverage when shifted agressively. Lastly, we feel that excessively heavy knobs can dampen out vibrations so well due to their mass, that the driver receives little useful information from the transmission. You can literally grind your gears to death and not even know it -- until it's too late.
What Makes MonsterKnobs™ The Right Fit for My Car?
MonsterKnobs™ are NOT "universal fit," because each shift knob is made to fit your car only. MonsterKnobs™ feature solid metal threads, manufactured right into the knob. There are NO set screws, NO adapters and NO glue. Just the right threads for your car, in solid metal, with a direct fit, screw-on installation.
