3 on the tree to automatic but keeping the steering column and shift pattern
Has anybody thought of a kit to configure a 3 on the column shifter to work an automatic transmission? Ideally, I would like something electronic or combination levers and electronic that would result in pull and up for reverse, middle for neutral, pull and down for 2, push and up for 3 and push and down for drive, and ignition switch off, shifter in neutral, and truck not rolling to automatically shift to park. Govern start with neutral safety switch as well as require clutch pedal depressed to start. Also use clutch pedal depressed to release shift position locking. It would be pretty much compatible with a driver thinking it was 3 on the tree, but the normal shift pattern for backing out of your driveway followed by going forward would be to shift into reverse using the clutch, then shifting into drive using the clutch. Using the other 2 gears wouldn't hurt but wouldn't be necessary. I think it would be cool. An LS engine and automatic transmission for my truck is in the future so it got me thinking about this stuff.
