aikeec USB American Truck Simulator Shifter Gearshift Knob Fit for ATS ETS2 Games PC Sim Racing Shifter Compatible

Bought this to go with my t300 wheel and pedals because using the paddle shifters as range selectors just felt wrong. Other options for truck shifters like this can be in the hundreds of dollars so felt like this was a low risk to give it a try and it turned out to be great. Shifter was instantly recognized with no drivers. Both switches and the button work perfectly in Euro truck simulator which is what I use this for. Shifter itself feels pretty good. About the quality you would expect from a stock shifter in a fleet truck. Nothing fancy but it doesn't feel super cheap either. No sharp edges or weird manufacturing defects. Switches feel good to click. The only part of the whole thing that bothers me is the bottom which features kind of an ugly unfinished look almost as if there is a plastic trim ring that is supposed to go around the bottom that is not included. This isn't a big deal because it's just aesthetics and I will probably end up 3D printing beauty ring to go there eventually. Mounting was relatively easy on a fanatec club shifter. The threads of the knob do not match up with the shifter so for a while I was forced to use the included grub screw adapter. The included adapter worked okay. It comes with a variety of rubber caps to go over your shifter to stop you from marring the threads and they did that job just fine. Unfortunately, the grub screws kept loosening themselves with use, so after pretty much every session the shift knob would be floppy. The adapter also adds additional height to an already pretty tall shifter which felt slightly awkward. I scoured the internet looking for a thread adapter and while I was unable to locate any on any of the usual sites including McMaster, I was able to track down the exact thread adapter I needed that was even the perfect length I needed from a Chinese seller on eBay. A couple weeks later it showed up at my door and I threaded it on and it went mostly perfectly except for when it was fully tightened the indexing of the shifter was off so it was about 90° too far to the right. Luckily I was able to 3D print spacer to fix this issue pretty quickly. So now my shifter sits perfectly centered on the shaft and is at the correct height. Overall a pretty great experience for the money, especially if you're willing to do a little tinkering. Construction seems pretty good. The cable is literally just a Microusb cable plugged into the control board inside the shifter. So if the cable ever goes bad you can just change it which is really nice actually. It also seems really serviceable as all of the parts seem like off the shelf components and are easily accessible by simply popping off the cap, so if any of the switches ever start going bad you can probably just swap them out for a couple bucks versus buying a whole new shifter.

If you love truck simulator games this is a true game changer it brings a whole new level of immersion and it makes truck simulator games like ATS & ETS way more fun. I used this for a very long time on my Logitech shifter and it works great. This shift knob is so much heavier than the stock knob it did make the mechanism feel weak but if anything that’s a knock at Logitech’s cheap products and shows how high quality this shift knob is. If you’re on the fence about this I’d say it’s 100% worth it, sim gear is expensive and this is a “cheap” (in the sim world) way to significantly improve your experience. Read more

Works really well. i have about 100 hours with it so far and have had only one problem, which is going to be on all entry level ones like this one is. It has a rubber piece that you put over your normal shifter. Well mine has started to slide around a bit. I dont know if it started to stretch out or not. In theory i could put a poxy inside and make it stop moving, but then it would be on forever. Not a bit deal and like i said, that is going to happen to just about every one of these entry level ones. And to be honest, i could probably tighten down the screws maybe a bit more to stop that, but i didnt want to over tighten and possible break the rubber piece. Came with instructions that was easy to understand. I got it for ATS and in the instructions it said how to configure it in game. I was up and running within 10 minutes of opening the box. Overall im really happy with this. The only downfall is ive had to learn speed and gears in the game, and thats a user error and not a product problem. There is one button that can be set up as whatever the user wants, and i find that using it for engine break works rather well. Read more
