Ive had several customers use these with no issues. But I have heard of a few people having issues with theres breaking. It makes a noticable difference.

Mine broke and since it was "out of the warranty period" I didn't get it replaced. I wasn't even beating on it I was just putting the truck in reverse. It did shorten the throw but it's still a six speed in a big truck. I never replaced it and don't miss it.
