why not a big screw driver. that way the handle of the screw driver and the logo of your favorite tool company will be your shift ****

I've driven a YJ with a big box wrench for the shifter and a giant bolt for the tcase. It was pretty cool but not the most comfortable if its a dd.

Just make sure whatever you do isn't too heavy. Damage to shift forks/dog rings etc is possible.

How about an old shotgun barrel?
