    901-915 shifter

    Is a 915 shifter sprung in reverse of a 901 shifter. A 901 the spring wants to push the shifter to the right is a 915 opposite? Sold a used shifter and my buyer asked that question.
    Is there a way to visually see the difference. Haven't looked yet but don't think there are part numbers on them. Thank you.

    A 72 915 shifter does look much different on the bottom than a 911 or 901 shifter. Unfortunately, I don't have a 72 915 shifter to photograph to show the differences. If you have a photo of the bottom of your shifter I can easily tell it what it is, though.

    Regards

    Jim

    The 72 915 shifter has a secondary plate (boomerang) and two tiny springs (for a total of four springs) for the reverse lockout ... shifters up to 71 only had two springs.

    Good call. You have described it to a T.

    915 shifter

    If some one would please verify that the shifter for a 72 915 is the correct one. Sent wrong shifter for a 901 to France and want to be absolutely sure I will be sending the correct one? Best to email me direct. slcarr.steve@aol.com. Thanks

    Those are the correct shifters for a 72. Hard to believe you have 3 of them! Have they been sand blasted?
