Re: Convert to floor shifter - Lokar specific

I got the shifter installed but haven't done a bind check yet. It shifts through the gears 'okay', maybe a bit sticky around 2nd or 3rd. I don't have a got feel that I'm actually in reverse every time I try it, so still have some tweaking to do.

I didn't have any crossmember issues but I did have to attach the lower cable mounting bracket onto a different set of transmission bolts so the cable would extend completely. I did not mount the shifter in the middle of the tunnel, it's more toward the driver side but nothing that looks bad. I think I can actually use the straight quad arm if I wanted to do that. I went with the 1-1/4" offset arm on the install to begin with.

The cable operated shifter was the way to go, thanks for that.

Pretty straight forward, cut a slot in the floor and drilled several holes, not too bad. I don't work fast, so it was a morning/afternoon job. Too cold outside right now for me to mess with, at least for a couple days.
Thanks for all the help.
