This comes from Barton industries, The 2015 is completely different then 11-14 and if the throw reduction is to much for you, then a simple cartridge swap will change the throw reduction. The spring pressure can be changed as well.

Does anybody know if this is posible with MGW as well?

25% is all that is offered on the MGW.

Been researching this for awhile now, and still can't decide. Something has to be done soon because I can't stand the blocking of 2nd and 3rd with the stk unit.

I think I am leaning towards MGW because it seems to be more complete for only $25 more?

Why I would choose barton would be because you can adjust your throw,and later select if you want push down reverse or pull up, and the spring tension can be adjusted, and easier to install as well, maybe the mgw has more parts but everyone has a good review on barton, but maybe theres something to it that Im not seeing but the barton fixes exactly your problem with miss shifts and if its easier to install,cost a bit less and gives you a chance to change and adjust to your liking, thats the way I would go

Both are solid and great shifters.

Initially I was going with Barton because I preferred the reverse pull-up, but after extensive reading on reviews of both....

I went with MGW, it seems like design and quality is superior.

Either way, you will be happy

After reading several reviews and watching cj pony parts install video. Barton will be my choice. Better to spend money on a complete solution rather then piece sts transmission bracket and bushing together.

I went with mgw, I was on the fence so long between the two. I talked to bob monks from stl mustangs (the mustang guru in Missouri) and he said mgw or nothing. I also liked that they don't use any of the old pieces due to not being up to standards. Now I just gotta wait 2 weeks due to back order lol

Keep in mind... We offer a full 30 day money back guarantee. We let you install it, use it, race with it, and if you are not completely happy with it, send it back for a FULL refund. You don't have to cut anything or modify any parts with our shifter, so if you decide its not for you. Your only out the install time.

Our Barton shifter can also be hard mounted to the trans as well. We sell the trans mount separate and it comes with a drive shaft safety loop. I recommend trying the shifter first and then getting the trans mount if you want it. Chances are, you wont want the mount once you've tried just the shifter.


We are getting ready to release a budget friendly setup as well. This will replace the center shaft, reverse lockout, and rear bracket on the stock shifter. Pricing will be below $300 maybe even low 200's. It wont offer the same experience of what our full replacement does, but it will be WAY better than stock.

I paid 180, you'll get quoted for 1 1/2 hours or 2 hours for the job.

You shouldn't pay no more than $200, I'm in socal as well.

Ours has the drive shaft loop included with it. They run anywhere from $100-$200 just for the loop if you were to buy that separate. Also, our pricing is List price, we use dealers, they can be had for less with a phone call.
