shifter
If you don't want to pay for a Locar just go the bone yard and pick one out. You can get one for a ford or chevy what ever you are using. I use a Ford van shifter for a chevy 700r4 you may need to change the hook up point on the arm to make it work. Just mount everything and go through the shifts and for each one make sure the connecting rod with slip out and back in. (Both the trans and the shifter have detents were they stop for each point)That way you are sure each shift point matched up with the shifter and the trans. park, reverse, first, second and drive. The one from the ford van was a nice height for a street or rat rod.[cl
Some of the newer models have a shift cable connecting between the 2 you could mount the shifter in the back seat for your backseat driver to choose which dirrection you go[S
