    New to this site, heres my rat project.

    Nice truck. I love the fact that you only have $1,230 in it.. Speaking of 19" tires.. Where do you get some 19" tires without spending $200 a piece? There has to be something out there at a tractor store or something?

    Custom Shifters?

    Now we're talking. I wish I had pictures. I might just take those from Genie and this description and try it out. Did you figure out how to keep it out of reverse and to lock it in Park etc? That would be a little embarrassing to put it in Reverse going like crazy off of an off ramp....

    Custom Shifters?

    Yep.. Round bar, chain, reBar, there are all sorts of things to fabricate the shifter arm from the shift knob to the guts of the shifter. My question is about the shifter itself. I mean the mechanism that you dont see.. That thing under the floor that has all the linkage.. I would call it...

    Custom Shifters?

    Ok....Here comes one of those dumb questions.. I can imagine some way cool knobs and even the shifter running up as high as the dash.. My question is... What sort of shifter linkage etc can be made or fabricated that we do not have to spend $250 or so from Lokar or Genie.. Not that they are...

    broken off bolts
