    Dual looking shifters

    I was getting tired of the retro looking automatic pad so I had to change it up some. Note that not only does it tell you what gear your in by the stick it also tells you on your dash so why have it in two places, so now that has been fixed

    Looks good, Could even perhaps be mistaken for a manual.

    did the old auto thing just screw off and that gear knob slide on ? whats happened to the lock thing so it cant be pushed into reverse from N without pushing the button

    I like the looks of that. Reminds me of the old slap stick shifters in Buicks.
    So I said to myself, I said "Handee"
    and this voice came back and said..
    "He's not in, may we take a message?"

    Yes the old shift knob did just screw off and the new one slid on

    I have it set up so all you do is push down on the knob to get it to shift out of gear I'm sure thats the way etlsport has his set up

    The boot I used was the factory boot from the 4X4 side and I just set it over the automatic plate

    I like it. I never use the gear location stuff at the base of the shifter. I take that back, I do use it to hold my remote for the radio.

    what happens when you go to a tire shop or something? You tell them that they must break their insurance policies and let you pull it in?
