![Why We Run Winters Shifters | Simple, Reliable, No BS Performance - Wide Open Design
Winters Shifters are one of the most reliable setups you can run—no gates, no springs, no failure points. We walk through the key differences between flush mount, console style, and non-console shifters, along with real-world advice on mounting options and what works best depending on your setup.
In this video, we break down:
√ Gate plates- including Rock Gate- and how to modify them for your driving style
√ Reverse vs standard shift patterns (and how easy it is to change)
√ Cable options and routing (5 ft to 12 ft depending on your build)
√ Top mount vs console style
√ Linkage kits and what’s included
√ Transmission compatibility including 700R4, 4L60E, TH350, TH400, 4L80E, C4, C6, and more
√ New Wide Open Design billet handles for added durability and style
Whether youre building a tube chassis buggy, LS swap, or race vehicle, this is a no-nonsense breakdown of one of the most proven shifter setups in off-road and motorsports.
