what year and what motor/ trans was in your truck stock because if its a 96-up and the 4.3/4l60E combo the factory one will work or if it was the 2.2 with an auto you can get the 4l60e cable n it'll work too otherwise the route i was going to go is get the floor shifter console from a blazer a. because it looks better than a colum shift and b. its more functional also what are you going for i.e. stock looking or race ready

I'm using a hurst quarter stick in my swap. from what i understand, any shifter for a 700r4 will work.
the stock F-body shifter has a ingition lockout(anti-theft) and a brake pedal louckout(prevents shifting out of park w/o brake depressed).
the wires going to the stock F-body shifter are park/nuetral position, backup lights, and a safety for the hatch (doesn't let you open it if your're in gear).

I called B&M about six months ago and the dude that i spoke to said they were working on a shifter for the 4th gen at that time but it would be a while befor it was ready for sale.

Lokar in a CJ7. Real cool brush aluminum handle with the gears engraved on a button which is depressed to select gears. Lokar has all different lengths and styles. Thanks
