RE: Floor Shifter Kit (automatic)?
I dropped my 1970 C-10 off at the Tranny shop for a rebuild on the 400 tranny. He had another truck there he was working on and it had a floor shifter and I liked the look of that. Can anyone suggest where to purchase one and which is the best bang for the buck?? Thanks in advance for and advice or suggestion

Re: Floor Shifter Kit (automatic)?
Do you have bucket's or a bench seat?
If bench then I would look at one that you have to pull a lever to get it to shift in any gear. I have had passengers kick them in neutral and down shift them before driving down the road with them setting in the middle of a bench seat with a floor shifter.

Re: Floor Shifter Kit (automatic)?
I did a S-10 floor shifter in mine. I'm running the 4l80e so I wanted the over drive setting. I cut the console down and then made the frame for it and covered it.
Some day I'll have a full one installed.

Re: Floor Shifter Kit (automatic)?
I've got the B&M light truck mega shifter in my 3100 and love it. It's got provisions for 3 and 4 speed autos and it has both normal and ratchet modes to either cruise or bang thru the gears.

Re: Floor Shifter Kit (automatic)?
I did a B&M shifter with a console surrounding it, Its just right for reach because its the truck series that I believe are taller. It has provisions for back-up and neutral safety switch.

Re: Floor Shifter Kit (automatic)?
I put the B&M Mega Shifter in mine. The one for trucks has a taller console so it is at the right height for a bench seat. Mine also has a button in the handle to shift the Gear Vendor overdrive.
