the old one is so broken up that it is covered with wads of duct tape.
and it was much too small.
i think the previous owner was a fat guy so he put a little wheel in there so he could fit behind it.
but that made it hard to turn.
no it wasnt very hard to find at all.
i got the wheel,twin stick shifter boot and a shift knob for $102
from KRAGE
i ordered the wrong knob.
i have a t-98 4 speed and the shift lever is a different diameter.
but i just enlarged the hole in the knob and it looks peachy!

BTW
krage is THE place to shop for me!

 

[unclebill]

just goofing off it's fun to drive.

[unclebill]

[unclebill]

for the 1st time i took it out and actually put it in 4wd and ran through all the gears as well as locking the hubs etc.
in 1st and 4wd low it really crawls.
i am glad i did my homework on this or i would have never figured out i needed to back it up a little to get the hubs to unlock.

Sounds like a Sunday drive to me! Glad your enjoying it. 8) Hows the weather out your way? Still chilly here. This lake is like sitting atop a giant ice cube!!
