Shortened Gear Stick?

The gear change on my manual D3, as on all the manual Discos, is a little bit.....ponderous.

I've found that by holding the stick lower down the shift quickens and feels a bit more precise. Has anyone been bold enough to chop the gear stick in order to lessen the throw between gears and make it feel a bit more accurate?

I have the same thoughts. Compared to the other cars in the household, the D3 gearstick throw is enormous.

Compared to a Series II it is tiny. If you want to see HUGE try a 101!
