TH8A Shifter mod - Reverse Lock - BMW Style (Work in Progress)

thingiverse

Modified TH8A shifter with BMW-style reverse gear lock. The shifter has to be turned upside down so that the reverse gear is on the left and not on the right. Of course, we need to remap the gears in the game settings after this operation. The seventh gear is not there - instead, there are six gears and reverse- just like in old BMW's with manual transmissions. In the normal position it won't work properly due to the bends that allow you to throw in, for example, 3rd gear from from 2nd. As a locking spring, I recommend using 8x25mm yellow bed springs for the Ender 3 printer. Any 8mm harder springs will also be ok as long as they are 25mm long, no less. We also need four M3x10mm screws and thread plastic inserts to screw together the modification. The project was designed from the beginning with 3d printing in mind with as little support as possible. Work on this modification is in progress.
