Let's see your custom shift/4wd knobs!

I don't think there's already a topic on this, but I do know that some of you have made some custom knobs for your 4dw and shifters... For example, Brian's Green Monster knob:



Here's mine that I made last night... Bought a replica grenade, JB Welded a nut to the bottom, primed with black paint, then covered in Plasti Dip. It sticks up a little higher than my preference, but I don't have the tools to cut into the grenade and mount the threads deeper. Oh well, it only cost me $11

Er, which shifter?

Uhhhhh my brain just exploded from knob overdose

I felt bad for Nick, so I designed him something sweet. Nick feel free to print this off on adhesive material. No charge for my intellectual property.

Here is mine. I designed and I made it. I have plans for a 4wd knob but I have been dragging my feet on getting it done. Now that work has slowed down significantly at the shop I am hoping to get some off the clock seat time with my lathe. David and Doug, thanks guys for being so patient haha.

Jami...you need to sell those things bro...6061 aluminum?? its beautiful by the way...

Dude I want to!! What I really want to do is design a totally new knob and 4wd knob combo. The knob I have is 1 of 3. David and my buddy Doug have the other 2. I want to keep those three knobs the only ones of their kind, so to speak. I need to sit down and come up with something soon.

id liek something that resembles an artillery shell...with the nose pointed down...i already have a grenade...that needs to be tapped for either of the sticks...

Jami... that looks AWESOME! How long does it take to make something like that with a lathe?

Mike, you and I must have similar taste cuz I was thinking about the same thing! Just don't know how I would go about threading/cutting/being sturdy enough to not feel cheap.

I am lucky enough to have one of these FINE shifters......I am just waiting for the artist to sculpt a transfer case shifter to match..........

David, you ARE one lucky son of a gun! I think the artist should create a NCFJC Limited Edition set
