Message: [QUOTE="me2, post: 342106, member: 3825"] The column shifter is plug and play. And its simple. If I remove it I have to relocate the tow haul switch and find a place for the up/down button on it that I want to use for exhaust braking. I like how Volvo does it on their iShift and this positioning is similar. And if I use a servo then I have to have a shift lever with Park, Neutral, Reverse, Drive, etc. There certainly isn't room for that on the column shifter I am building. There is barely enough room for up and down positions between the lid and the cupholder. And I like the idea of using the column shifter to set the gear(valve body) and then using the console shifter to tailor it or change modes. In auto mode anyone can jump in my truck, throw it in Drive and drive it just like any other truck. This is my third kick at the shifting setup. Another thing I tried was the floor shifter setup from a (cough) Toyota Tundra (cough). I could probably make it work and it has a really nice shift flow to it, but I would have to give up the floor space between the console and the lower dash and that is too precious. I have stuff that goes there. There are obviously many ways to do this. Each to their own. If I find I dislike my setup, I can always change it later. [/QUOTE]
