    My '71 has a 4" extension on the shifter.

    Hello,
    I just created an account here specifically to thank CJ Joe (post #16) for posting his fabrication pictures.

    I searched all over the net and this was exactly what I needed to realize I could make this myself.
    When I put the SM420 in the dana "super" 18 single stick wouldn't fit so I cut it off and am much happier with two sticks now anyway.
    It took about $10 and a couple hours and I was able to make a twin stick that works great and I am very happy with.

    So thanks again for the inspiration!

    Very old thread here but just what I was looking for. I did the twin stick conversion in a hurry and didn't come out with a good result. I'm redoing it now so I wanted to ask where did you get these shifter sticks from? Did you make them yourself or order them somewhere?
