Very nice job. And yes it definitely has the OEM flavor.

You have to use the covers off a RC.

Very cool, how difficult was it to move it?

The toughest part is getting the linkage to the trans correct. I did not want to use a B&M or a Hurst shifter, I wanted the OEM look. Unfortunately all shifters are not created equal. The spacing between the engagement points on the shifter versus the transmission is what's hardest to match up. You have to either shorten or lengthen the lever that the cable bolts up to at the transmission to get it right.

i got lucky with mine just had to move the piece on the tranny that the cable Mont's 2 just a hair
 
That looks awesome. What vehicle are those shifter/console parts built for?

I always felt it should have had the shifter on the floor for the quad cab too. Looks way better than stock.

mine came out of a wrecked 07 nitro not sure on his
 
Looks killler very well done, I think it would look really good too if you could combine the two shifters,I like the fabric around the shifter base,but like the shifter part of the nitro set up,Both very well done,Gotta agreee that it should have been done from factory.Two thumbs up!

The shifter is out of an 07 F150 and the center console is the original piece modified by my trim shop and wrapped in leather.

Dennis, can you post pics of your rear bumper and exhaust?

Larry, I got another bumper center section which I'll have the exhaust cut out removed and sectioned into the existing bumper. Then I'll add the dual setup. Basically, it will be a mirror image of our current exhaust on the left side.


OK stay with me as im not all there..........................

buy tony's 4" monster do your duals in the bumper then have a shop splice into the exhaust and mandrel bend 4" pipe to the 5" tip it would look great! IMO :)
