I built 838 last year. I looked high and low and even ordered a shifter that was claimed to be shorter.

My conclusion is they are all about the same.

I cut mine off just below the bend and welded it back. If I remember correctly it shortened it almost 2 inches. Another 1” would make it perfect, but getting into the bend would make it look odd.

The handle was mild steel and easy to weld.
