I think if I just get a longer shifter rod (for lack of a better term ) I can use the **** I got from dennis kirk....otherwise it's just ****,lol

 

this looks promising, course it says it wont fit but we know better)p

I usually do but crawling under a house is not exactly my thing these days, so she had someone else "help"

 

Wonder if a double spline rod from a heritage would work...

my inner linkage (to shifter linkage) isn't bent like that one I'm hoping mine is bolted to the shaft.....the question is whether the shaft would stay in place because it is longer....

 

these pix might show the clearance issue

 

Get the longer shaft!

 

do you have one in mind?

 

Bill, this is a good resource for parts & their numbers. Mad props to @Uncle Larry for pointing me there 4 or 6 years ago

I know you are not looking for stock parts but the diagrams are nice to show you what was stock.
