new source for manual shifter?? F150!

adapting F150 shifter to Ranger



this tranny is from the 3.0 '99 rollover I stripped last summer. the BW 1350 is from a yard up near Bobby's area. I only bought the 1350 for it's shifting internals.
shifter is from a 2000 F150 4.2 auto with BW4406 manual.
currently it's only attached by 1 bolt, I'll need to move the other hole and finesse the location to fit the Rangers floor. maybe bend the handle a bit too.
still in the preliminary stages, need to do some thinkin & scratchin.
the transfer case is in 2Hi, 4lo would have the arm level.

or just make one.

You need the most common lever:

A4LD shifter (on a C5 which obviously isn't fitting)

The two different style levers for the 1350, A4LD on the right:

Ford made at least two levers for the t-case too, looks like you have the longer one which is what you need.

Also the detents are not really strong in the t-case, not sure how well they will stay in gear (or how well you can find a gear) without the gate like the stock shifter.
