I HAD A PIECE WELDED IN MINE TO EXTEND IT THE 2 AND A WHATEVER INCHES THAT CALMINI SUGGESTED ;D MATTY D...



when did calmini suggest this

i have their lift and was unhappy with it because they left  some stuff out but. in the instructions they did state to drill out the plastic pins and heat up the shaft to remove the glue
what they forgot to say was you had to knotch out for the t/case shifter and also for the tranny shifter

Ga_Zuk, its in the fitting instructions that came with my kit, theres even a photo of one. I extended the shifters on mine so I didn't have to cut the floor
