FAQ

Is this lever compatible with my vehicle’s transmission?

The Lokar lever is designed for a wide range of manual transmissions. Compatibility depends on the mounting pattern and shift linkage length. We provide detailed fitment charts and can assist with custom adaptations if needed.

How do I adjust the linkage after installation?

After mounting the lever, loosen the adjustment bolts on the linkage, align the shift rod with the transmission’s input shaft, then tighten the bolts to the specified torque. This ensures smooth, backlash‑free gear changes.

Can the lever be painted or finished differently?

While the chrome finish is factory‑applied for durability, the lever can be recoated with high‑temperature paint or powder coating if a different aesthetic is desired. We recommend professional finishing to maintain structural integrity.

What maintenance is required to keep the lever looking new?

Periodically clean the surface with a mild automotive soap and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could mar the chrome. Applying a thin layer of automotive wax can enhance shine and add an extra protective barrier.

Does the lever affect shift feel compared to stock levers?

Yes, the solid construction and ergonomic knob provide a more direct and tactile feel, reducing the effort required for each shift. Drivers often report quicker, more confident gear changes, especially in performance driving scenarios.
