Title: 3 spd floor shift
Post by: groover on May 27, 2013, 07:52:51 PM
Hi guys, would like to convert to floor change and was wondering if anyone has pics on how they mount the shifter to box.

Cheers Aaron

if you running the stock box
idd say no, leave the column shift or go auto if it a problem (could change it out to a latter syncro box and do it), all the old timers have told me the gears just never mesh like the do on the column, with that box

Hi John, thanks for the reply. Yeh if they are no good as a floor shift to the original box then i wont worry about changing it as it changes smooth on the coloum but im just over the 3 on the tree.
I hear people putting 138 reds and leaving standard box in, didnt realise they mesh up so my understanding would be roll reversal that i could mesh up a later 3 spd to my grey motor ???

G'day Aaron,

If your thinking floor shifters (or want to understand the grey motor crashbox better), this may help:
