I have the stock TH350 linkage on mine and it works just fine. I can just barely shift into 1st gear.

The stock linkage will work fine....but as pjmoreland stated, might have some trouble getting it in 1st, a little grinding on the column can correct this.

Stock works, but using the Lokar I think you can adjust it so the indicator for the R4 on the column will line up properly. Have one but haven't installed it yet.

Do you recall the number of that lokar shift linkage? Was it a ACA-1800? I am curious if this would be the same for the 4x4 trucks as well?
