Stupid option for Triple Sticks
« on: May 04, 2013, 07:01:07 PM »
Thinking about doing a cable Triple Stick setup in my truck. Been building parts but I'm not sure if it will all fit, well without a bunch more hacking the floor anyway. Not that that has stopped me before.  :greengrin: The point of this is that the levers will be mounted basically in a straight line front to back. Trying to fit them between the seats next to the Winters Modified shifter I want to run.

Ok Rory, another stupid option:  How about a way to mount the triple sticks on the rear case?

Yeah, I like that idea. I actually have one designed in my CAD program. But there may be a simpler way.

Thanks, for a minute this weekend i was not seeing the light, then I had one of those Ah Ha monents. Here is what it's looking like now. Still I have way too much work into this, but man will it be nice when I get this finished.

I'm sure you all thought this was dead....................NO WAY! I have been tweaking things around in my not so much spare time and as soon as some simple t-case splash shields show up from Marlin I'm ready to assemble. So yes pics will follow as I head into this final assembly stage.  :clap:

Happy Independence Day fellow wheelers  :usa:

Well it's all installed, still a bunch of finish work to do but it works and what a pain to put together.

very nice! I have been thinking about this idea for a while now. Just never had time to build it.
