How to mount H-pattern shifters and load-cell handbrakes rock-solid on your ASR 1, ASR 3, ASR 4, or ASR Pro chassis.

ASR Shifter Arm & Handbrake Plate Mounting Guide for Rally and GT Rigs

Yanking a rally handbrake or slamming gears on an H-pattern shifter puts heavy side-to-side leverage on your cockpit's side arm. Advanced SimRacing builds thick laser-cut steel mounting plates and reinforced aluminum arms that keep your controls steady, all at 5% off with partner code SIMRACINGNATION5.

Reinforced Side Arms and Dual-Control Plates

If you own an entry-level chassis without a side rail, the Supported Shifter Arm Add-On ($99.74 net with code SIMRACINGNATION5) adds both a horizontal aluminum beam and a vertical support leg that ties directly into the base frame. That vertical post stops the arm from bouncing downward when you shift aggressively.

To mount a gearbox and a rally handbrake side by side, bolt on the Shifter & Handbrake Plate [Generation 2] ($104.49 net). If you only need to add an angled handbrake next to your existing shifter, the compact Advanced Handbrake Plate ($37.99 net) bolts straight to your T-slot rail.
