Getrag shift knob needed

[MWehmeyer]

Tried to order one from DC. Part number still on the books but the dealer called today and said the order has been cancelled. Anyone out there have one they'd like to sell? Also need a hood ornament.

Thanks,

Mike

Hood ornament should still be available new, around $60. Ebay $25-50. Sometimes members will be parting out an old Dodge and will have one laying around. I believe 89 was the last year for the goat head. In my opinion, I don't think the goat heads look good on 91 and up models. 'Not original'. IMO it only looks good if there's a chrome emblem right below the goat head on the hood itself saying DODGE, not on the grill. Stay away from JC Whitney's $29 pos goat head, not original, not spring loaded, its one piece. I would only look for a goat head if maybe a previous owner installed one, and some jerk stole the head and you only have the base left. I have a new goat head, but I'm keeping it for later when they are no longer available and or some jerk steals the one on my 89. Sorry I know we all love the goat head, I do very much, but my 78 doesn't have one and neither does my 91, and they're not gonna get one anytime soon. BTW my 89 and my old 85 didn't come with one, but I bought one and drilled two holes for it. Sorry didn't mean to go on. Oh did you know, the goat head I'm told is worth 15rwhp.

Bill,

Dealer quoted me $85 and I'm not sure what it supposed to look like . Thanks for the info.

Found a shift knob at arizona parts . com - interesting site. Also found out that the parts guy at the local dodge dealer was all wet about the hood ornament - never was one on the 91 - just the word DODGE on the front grill.

This may be what you're looking for - came off the arizonaparts.com site:



P/N, Description, Year, Quantity, Price

4428340, 5 SPEED GEARSHIFT KNOB/DIESEL, 1988-93 DT, 2, 35. 00



Not sure what the quantity column is for, maybe how many they have in stock? That site really sucks..... hard to read the list of parts you get.

I took the qty column to be what he has on hand - placed the "order" on the phone which is just a reservation - you have to send him check or money order as he doesn't do any ecommerce - but if you need the part... ... ... ... .
