Moving 3 on the tree to the floor.

I'm thinking about driving this truck after I do the Power Steering, Power Brakes and 4/6 Drop. But if I do I would like to move the shifter off the column to the floor. I'm told Jegs has a setup to do this. Anyone familiar with this move ?

I eventually want to go with a 700R4, which I was glad to hear the stock rearend in my truck is a 3:73 which should set up perfect with the overdrive. When I move to the 700 R 4 I'll be wanting a floor shift anyway.

Re: Moving 3 on the tree to the floor.

I wouldn't recommend that as the floor shifters I've seen for 3-speeds are located off to the drivers side of the tunnel and likely wouldn't be where you would want your auto shifter to live, they do not install in the same location as a 4-spd shifter.
