ok, thanks. i'll let the guy know, and yeah, whenever he gets another 85.5-96 d60 give me a holler.

it is in pretty decent shape, but old iron holds no value anymore unless it's restored. i'm selling it because i planned on doing a d60 swap, but while searching for an axle i found a few complete trucks with 60 fronts in my price range, which saves me time and money over swapping out all the half ton crap in the bronco. i live right in town and rent, so i don't have parking space for more than two vehicles, so i gotta sell the bronco. if i had the space i'd keep it cause the wife likes it a lot with the removable top, but we just don't have the space. i thought about moving, but where we're at is nice and fits most of our needs..............most of them

By cutting, bending, welding, and some guess work.

I'm not trying to give you a smart-alec answer, that's just what it took.

Probably the easiest to run cable shifters when you clock one that much. Atleast thats what Id do. Id imagine the geometry of the linkages would be all fubar and the shifter would be pretty long otherwise.


I would like to see some pics though.

Maybe something along the likes of a bell crank would work for mechanical
Lionkages.
