Where to mount aftermarket floor shifter - a-body - 01/15/11 08:22 PM
As you'll notice from the pics, I've converted my Dart from bench seat to buckets.
I also just purchased a Hurst Promatic-2 shifter for it.
So now my only question is, where do I mount the shifter to make it something like a stock location ?
Seems to be two locations that would work well, first is the rear position, where the tunnel starts to ramp upwards.
The second position is about 6-8" forward of that, where the tunnel starts to flatten out, more on top of the tunnel.
Any ideas ? Could anyone with a stock floor shifted dart take a measurement from somewhere on the dash or floor to where the shifter handle is ?
Here's pics of both possible installation spots. Both would be comfortable enough. Note: the seats are all the way to the rear right now, which is were they will be when I'm driving.
First a pic of the rear position.
