Anyone know how to fabricate this shifter to work with an auto? someone on naxja from what it sounds like has made the lever on the grenade work like the button on the stock shifter. Any ideas on how this could be done?

Here's the shifter.

and here's the other thread

I could see making it work if the pin was pulled and you squeeze the level to release the shift lock...

would need to have one in hand to get my thoughts around it (buy one for me and i'll do it up ) I have '98 Auto with tee shifter side button

 

I really want to do this now! I would put the lever on the front aide though, seems weird onthe backside

 

Why not ask how the one you saw was done?

 

i did it with an old jeep of mine some time ago but with a chromed out grenade from autozone


except mine was setup as a "pull lever away" from the grenade to engage the shift lock...

i drilled out the hole that the pull pin went through so it had a little more pivot room... major PITA to get it to work, spent about 30 mins just adjusting fitment so it engaged enough to work, but then not too much to where the shift lock is always engaged so it'll fall through all gears (lmao like from drive to reverse at 30 mph)

but with the one they used, looks like; remove the pull pin and it pivots on the hinge then finess the shift lock spacer with something to connect between the shift lock spacer and the palm plate on the grenade...

 

Asked the original poster but he's been inactive for acouple weeks. Never done anything like this before but i really want this shifter. lol

 

Found a write up on it.

 

Post it please

 

Im 80% sure you can do that anyways... im pretty sure you dont have to use the button for anything put out of park... but dont destroy me if im wrong.
Ill run out and check right now.

 

On mine I can roll it from D to N and R to N but from N it won't roll into R without the button
