Default Shifter stick

Gotta stepvan with an NV5600.
The shifter stick is way out of place. Can I pull the OEM stick out, and turn it around so it points foward?

you can put some fire to the stick and bend it.... pull it out first.

i'm not sure what you mean by take it out and turn it around? most shifters have a specific bolt pattern that makes them bolt up only one way.

can we get some pictures of the shifter you have?

Well since you know how to bend metal, why not just fab up a new one? Or better yet take the shifter off and try to flip it and find out yourself and let us know how it goes...
