I can't justify the cost of what they want for that.

I would go for this one.. http://www.boostwerksengineering.com...ans-_p_25.html

Novak's cable shifter is definitely worth the money.

There's a write up on it from Bleepin' Jeep. It's a straight forward installation, you'll need to modify the stock shifter z-gate(if your using it) to take full advantage of having it.

I have it on my 2000 w/242, good stuff!

I wouldn't use a shifter cable,Some trucks had them stock and if you do not use it enough the cable can rust in place inside the sleeve,Same thing happens to a hood latch cable.I rather have the heavy duty linkage set up like that boostwerk kit is.
