So about a month ago I had problems with my ZJ (94 V8) not shifting through the gears in my newly swapped in 231. It turned out that the stupid pivot point part of the linkage that goes into the side of the transmission fell out and like wedged itself against the transmission not allowing it properly shift. Right now the linkage isnt even hooked up.... I came across the Novak-adapt linkage that is 100% different and eliminates the pivot point setup

I was just wondering if anyone has switched to this set up and is it worth it? It seems like a better setup by utilizing the transmission/tcase marriage bolts instead of the complicated set up in there now..

I ran it for a year or so but swapped back to the stock shifter. I had a hard time getting mine to stay in 4lo.

So judging by your picture you off road your Jeep and probably use 4lo more than I ever will. Mine is stock and probably will never use 4lo so idk if I'd personally be worried about that issue lol. I do appreciate you're input though. thank you

What about building your own linkage http://www.bsfab.net/?p=26 or buy it premade http://froehlichsuspension.3dcartsto...kage_p_24.html

If i had the skill set and proper tools to make my own linkage I'd consider it. I just know if I tried to make my own it would go terribly wrong and result in my threatening to sell my Jeep multiple times lol

No u pulls in your area prob get whole set up 15 or 20 bucks a lot of different year jeeps have same set up...
