Lokar Linkage

Anyone using the lokar 2" tube shift linkage cable on their van column upgrade? Pros and Cons maybe?

Re: Lokar Linkage

I've got one installed on my truck and I'm really happy with it. I didn't use the column bracket that came with the kit... I fab'd my own and mounted it on the frame, mostly because it interfered a little with the large booster I am running.

IMO, the two major advantages of these is that you can route the cable virtually anywhere and it isolates the sterring column from the transmission... When I had the rod-style afermarket linkage installed there was a lot of torque transferred to the shifter lever when you got into the peddle.
