Will it be functional?

 

If I had one I could probably figure it out. The hard part would be running the hose to the keg :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

Anyone have any good ideas on how to mount a beer tap handle to ranger shifter ?

That would be awesome!!!!
If you figure it out, I want to know how you did it!
I think that would be a cool looking setup - even if no beer ever comes out of it!!!
My choice would be a Shiner Bock ram-head tap.

 

I used a Coors original tap on one of my Chevys. Was able to drill out the base of the tap just enough to slide over the column shift rod and then used an epoxy to set it in place. I never offroaded the truck as hard as I do my Ranger so I don't know how well one would hold up but it did fine in the truck. Two draw backs were you couldn't go through a check point without having to walk a line and touch your nose and when I sold the truck the epoxy set up soo hard I couldn't remove it, ended up going to the junk yard and getting a new shift rod (I didn't want to loose my tap ).

 

Haha saw the post and thought what a great Idea

went and got mine and started daydreaming about the best way to do it and I think drilling it out will be the best bet I will definetly be trying it soon. :lol:

 

It has been too long since I changed my stock one out but if memory serves me right it had a set screw in the side to hold it in place, better than epoxy.

 

Yea i just have a budweiser tap handle just the handle!! Was just wondering what would be the best way to mount it.

X2 on the Shiner

I drilled and taped a pool ball for my tractor

 

drill it out so it will slide on ,u can drill both sides of it and put set screws in it to hold it tight

 

Thanks guys ill post some pictures when i get it finished.

 

I definitely want to see the finished project!

 

Me too - pictures please!
And the story of how you did it!

 

Beer Tap gear shifter

I have one a bud light tap shifter. What we did was first remove the stock knob. Second you are going to have to cut down the shifter shaft. Third weld I believe its a 5/16 bolt onto the shifter shaft make sure you put a jam nut on the bolt before you screw the tap on so you dont overtighten the tap and crack it. I will try and get some pics when I get my buggy back next week. Gwise
