Topic: New Top Shift conversion, how many are interested?

[91 super yoda]

As of right now I am faced with the same problem as many of you are. I need to convert my forward shifting t-case to a top shift in order to dual them up. Marlin no longer sales the top shift kit, in case you didnt know, so I will be attempting to make my own. Ill be working with a 91 forward shift and will be machining new shift rails out of high grade steel. Tomorrow I will be contacting Marlin to see what he thinks about the whole thing.

Comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

thats all good stuff, but I still see people that want to buy something that they can bolt in and it will work. Not everybody wants to take a chance in messing it up. So, in conclusion I am still going to machine new parts to sell to solve the problem.

Thanks for the post

Sounds like a good idea!  Id be down to test out your product for sure!

I'm pretty interested.  I have several forward shift cases that need converting.  How much are you looking to sell your kits for?

Did you ever make a kit to sell?

theres not enough interest in at as of right now. it cost too much to machine just a few.

 I could use one if the price is right.

I just converted mine from forward shift to top. I just had to do a little fab work tho the shift rail and collar so far it has worked out very well I have had no problems,

I believe the dual case setups from Dave's Offroad are forward shift converted cases............
