Default th400 shifters, lets see um

I am going to have to get a reverse pattern shifter. If you guys can give me back some input on your shifters I'd appreciate it. Also could you tell me what modifications were required?

this is the only pick I have. I built my own plate on the bottom to move it up like 1inch and then honed out the plastic to fit perfect.

It is the hurst quarter stick pistol grip, dont know the part #, but look it up in summit or something and it should come right up. Mine is a RMVB and the top I use fro line lock and button to the left of the console is for my transbrake, you can set it up for whatever you want it to do.

Really hard to do that. you prolly could but you would have to move the shifter up about 2inches or so, so it will work. Def. would have to be a trial and error thing.

Yup.
I did mine that way and love the way it looks!
Sorry for the crappy pic.
I used the stock bracket and cut out the factory shifter and welded my TH-400 shifter onto it.
Yes, you should be able to do the same with the pistol grip shifter.
