USB Gearshift Knob from a Man Truck ATS ETS for Logitech G29 G27 G25 G920 H Gearshift Shifter Knob for ATS ETS2 Games AI PC …

A review from a 25 year veteran truck driver. I do also own the SKRS knob for the TM TH8A. This one I received works as intended. I purchased it for the Logitech Driving Force Shifter. The one that comes with the G920 wheel. This shifter knob is mounted to the shifter by pressing it on. There is a plastic sleeve inside the knob to make for a tight fit. After its on it takes some effort to remove it and it does not spin easily on the shaft. The switches work as intended. Windows 10 recognizes the lever/switches as two separate buttons. ATS however recognizes both buttons as the same (button 0), but it does actually work in game as two separate buttons on the knob. The quality of this thing overall is really good. I don't know if this thing is an actual knob out of a Man truck or not, as I have never driven a Man. But it does feel like an actual shift knob from a truck so I wanna say it is. The thing I noticed most is the stepped tapper at the bottom of the knob. That is not something I have ever seen on one in the US. This tapper creates an issue however by making the knob length longer over all. So by the time the knob is installed and fully depressed onto the shaft of this shifter, there is not a lot of space for the cable between the knob and the shifters vinyl boot. So either extend the original shaft or create a notch in the bottom of the knob for the cable to exit. This will help eliminate the cable from rubbing on the vinyl. The buttons compared to an actual truck. The splitter on the side of this one is stiff and has a very nice snap to each position. Very much like a new one would from the factory. The range lever on the front is also stiff but does not have the snap past center when moved. An actual shifter does. An actaul knob is very mechanical on the inside. So this lack of snap could be due to its modification to electronic output. My SKRS has a very nice snap to it on the range lever, but the splitter was always loose and less snappy. A lot like when an actual one is worn out. I purchased a second one these for a backup, but I might actually use this one instead and put my SKRS in a box as backup. I like this one better. Price! I know these seem expensive, but I have replaced two knobs in actual trucks and each knob from the dealer was about $90. So I can't complain. Update 3-8-22: I received the second knob the day after I ordered it. I plugged it in, and it works and feels exactly the same as the first one. I also happened to look down through the bottom of it and I could see where the fittings for the airlines will thread in. So yes, this is an actual knob from a truck. Bumped to five star instead of 4 for consistency in quality. The only reason for the 4 was the lack of snap on the range lever. Update 9-4-23: The kid has really put some good time and abuse (normal use) on this thing, and its still working. How much time, and in game miles I do not know. The splitter is still stiff as it was new. The range selector has very slightly loosened up. Again this is an actual knob out of a truck. And some of these things mechanically, last a decade or more before you want a new one. Thats a decade worth of hundreds of thousands of miles, through possibly the same amount of shifting. Its hard to say what they may have changed in the mechanicals of it, to make it USB. But I suspect the electronic part will fail before the knob does. And who knows when that will be, with any electronics. I have repaired the mechanicals in these, in trucks, and they really aren't that difficult to take apart. The hardest part is getting that dang cover off the top, without scaring any of it up. I even seen the professional shops scratch them up, doing it. So the electronics are what you'll be concerned about. I have read many of the reviews on this, and they seem mixed, from some folks who may not have used one of these IRL. I don't think you could go wrong. Price to me, seems very fair, when you compare what these cost at the truck dealer, new, at retail price.

Using on a Logitech shifter. Works perfect for ATS. Lettering on shifter is in a foreign language. But it looks and feels just like the real deal

high low switch stopped completely working after 30 mins of game play , no hard use or being rough with it , i would avoid buying this one as it is a waste of money

I’m using the Aikeec USB Gearshift Knob mainly for American Truck Simulator, but also tested it with BeamNG, Forza, and Assetto Corsa—and it adds a whole new level of realism to all of them. It fits perfectly on my Logitech G920 setup and mounts to my NBCP 6-speed shifter with push-down reverse. Setup was easy, but just a heads-up: mine didn’t come with a manual. Thankfully it’s plug-and-play via USB, and mapping the buttons was super simple in ATS and BeamNG. The knob itself feels solid—it’s full metal and has a satisfying feel when shifting. The button layout is perfect for sim truckers who like to map engine brakes, lights, or transmission modes. Only small issue I had was the knob sliding sideways during intense shifting. Since it’s metal-on-metal, the set screws didn’t grip well enough. I added some electrical tape to the stick, and now it stays tight and doesn’t turn. Pros: • Heavy, realistic metal feel • Plug and play on PC • Great compatibility (works in multiple sims) • Nice button layout for shifting functions Cons: • No manual included • Could use rubber or better grip for the mount (mine slipped until I modded it) Bottom line: This knob seriously levels up your sim rig if you love truck driving games or just want more immersion. It’s well worth the money, and with a small tweak to secure it better, it’s now one of my favorite parts of my whole setup.

Overall this is a great product. Feels very nice and comfortable. I drive big trucks for a living, and this gear shifter is great for 8/9/10 speeds. But here's where it gets tricky. Works great with ATS, haven't tried it with ETS2 yet. When you are in your controller setup, you'll select one drop down for the wheel/shifter, and another drop down for the "truck switch". There are 3 colors for the splitter button on the side. Gray is for 18-speed, Blue is for 15-speed, Red is for 13-speed. This is key. On the one I received, it has the blue button, so only allows me to split gears in the low range. Once I put it in high range (front lever to up), you can no longer split the gears. Be mindful of this. But for the price, I'm going to keep it and get another one. I gave it 4-stars overall because it's still a great product, 5-star for the value (way less expensive than the skks one), 4-stars for the install (I really had to press down hard on the knob to seat it on the gear shifter shaft of my g920, and 5-stars for the comfort.

This is an actual shifter knob from a rl truck the real ones run about $60usd and they converted it to work with a USB cable which is pretty ingenuous. Thank you for doing so. I do feel the price could be a bit cheaper. The splitter the switch on the front is a bit hard to move but in time it may loosen up. the blue switch on the side is a high/low setting and is not made to "CLICK" this switch is for high/low gear selection such as RL/RH or 8L/8H etc.. Most driver rarely use this setting (switch) unless they have a very heavy load to get rolling and then on the highway to switch to 8H for better fuel econ. All I did to install it was unscrew the original shifter head and slide this on on. it fits snug and no screws needed hence no instructions. its well made at least the knob lets see how well of a job they did converting it to USB. Only time will tell but I think this will out last the Logitech shifter unit.

It works great. Once I got it to fit on my shifter post. It's an extremely tight fit and You need to twist and push and twist and turn just to get it on and in place. For setup in ATS make sure you select the shifter in the drop down list on the top of the controls page. Also check the box for "shifter toggles use switch mode" otherwise it won't work. I use the high/low switch for shifter toggle 1 and the side switch for shifter toggle 2. I gave only 3 stars due to how difficult it was to install on the shifter post.

Whole feeling in ATS. Shift just like my real truck now. In ETS is a whole other story have to hit the range and splitter twice to shift. Easy to setup in both games.

Little bit pricey, but definitely worth getting

Cuando mi computadora me marcó error, lo abrí para revisarlo y pues, así viene, muy caro para que lo mandan así y con pegamento en la parte de abajo, sosteniendo el cable. Solicitó mi reembolso por favor.

Don’t not work on 3.0 USB but work on a 2.0 USB input, works very well and fits on a moza shift but you need to tread m12x1.5 in the shift and fits good

I bought my husband, who is a retired truck driver, this to use with his American Truck simulator. It took him less than 5 minutes to set up, and it works perfectly. The pictures provided by the seller show a different shifting pattern than an Eaton Fuller 18 speed however he was pleasantly surprised to receive an actual Eaton Fuller 18 speed shifter.

I normally never write reviews, but here is my experience with this item: 1 - The shifter had scratches all over it on delivery which made me think that either the manufacturing process is really bad, or the item was a return\refurbrished (which I think its both). 2 - The "High\Low" is written in chinese, not english. 3 - The screwing hole might not fix you shifter (mine was a DX from simagic); Fine this is my mistake for not checking, but still be careful and make sure it is compatible before buying. 4 - The USB cable was almost detached from the base on delivery, ity was really friddle and disconnected if I was shifting to aggressively (Had to zip-tie it). 5 - Because the cable makes a 90deg with the base the strain\fatigue generate while using it broke it (cable severed) in about 10hours of usage. 6 - Top part (fake leather) is starting to detached from the base because it isn't glue propely (well not glue a all). Basically I paid 125$CAD and receive some refurbrished chinese crap that lasted no more than 10h of usage. Give yourselves a favor and dont buy this item. And if you do, don't tolerate any visual quality issues because problems will show up in the near future.
