I tried to thin two identical shifters as much as possible, and added metal bushings and a longer bolt. I also greased the crap out of it all.

I trimmed the front fenders after driving it off road. I used a 4 1/2 inch angle grinder with a cutting disk.

I made shift linkage from a 3/4 inch union pipe fitting and drilled it to install a keeper, then welded a tab off it at an angle to keep the same shifter throw as the other one.

Drive in freeze plugg and use the same hole to drive in the roll pin that holds the shift fork to the rail. You'll have to move the rail in and out to look in hole and see it. Knock it all the way in till it falls into case and leave the punch in for...

Lastly I had to make a 3/16 thick spacer because the adapter doesn't seat all the way. I used the NP205 gasket as a template. I siliconed both sides upon install.

Remove the bolt housing the spring and ball , this is the gear selector placement. Now the shift rail should slide freely. This modification is all done to the rear wheel drive shift rail, the one near the input and rear yoke.

I really thought the lifter noise would stop since they were new and torqued to specs but they were still noisy. It ran great though, till I rolled the truck.
