Here's how Both the 901 and 915 shift housings provide the same shift geometry. In fact, with the exception of the location of reverse, they are interchangeable. However, if the 915 shift housing is used by itself, there is no spring-loaded feature to assist the shift from 1st to 2nd gear. 901 shift pattern: R-2-4 1-3-5 915 shift pattern: 1-3-5 2-4-R Adding the Gate Shift kit provides the missing spring tension by automatically guiding the shift lever from 1st gear into the neutral position directly in line with 2nd gear. A mere push forward completes the shift into 2nd (just as it does for the 2-3 shift with a 915 gearbox). In addition, the path to 4th/5th is spring-loaded as well. The Gate Shift kit provides all-important tactile feedback to let you know what gear you're in. What are 901 users saying?
