Is the short shift kit something used to shorten the throw of the shifter? I
went to the Gene Berg site and saw that he only offers parts for '71 and
older Type IIs - then I left. I am hoping that I misinterpreted this and
that the short shift kit is available for my '88 Weekender. Is this shift
kit available for the '88?

I got mine from Gene Berg as part of the list group purchase earlier this
year.  I love it and the short-armed folks who also drive the van like it as

well.  I got the short shift kit and the shifter extender.  The shifter is
now sitting there waiting to be massaged just inches away from my hand as it

reclines on the armrest.  No searching, no reaching, no strain.  A good
investment IMHO.
