BD Diesel 6.4 Tap Shifter?

looking forward to your thoughts on it, Eric. If it really works well, I wouldn't mind getting it for the reg cab.

I'll see, I mainly want it for gear select-ability. Running a large single the trans settings play the biggest part. I'm pretty happy with my current Gearhead MCC tunes, but if this makes it even better then I'll be a happy camper.

Yay... Mine just showed up. Probably put it on Friday.

Its nice to have the option to be able to downshift when I want to

It's probably not a must have......but a very nice, option.

Very true.

I bet it's a god send for a larger sized single truck.

Didn't think of that.

I'm sure its equally as nice for guys that tow a lot.

How about for the 6.0 guys would it work?

I don't see how the shifter would even fit on us 6.0 guys. dash is in the way.

I wonder if you could mod the stock shifter arm to accept the selector switch.

I believe they are working on a 6.0 version.

Or take the selector out of arm and put it in the dash under the cluster in front of the shifter.

i mighta missed it, but is there a picture of one installed, in a truck?

and does this essentially turn our automatic into a manual?

dads gotta '15 half ton, that when you pull it back to "M" you can manually force it to go to whatever gear you want it to, and it will stay there till you either tell it to go to another gear, or go back to "D". this is pretty much the same thing?
