View Full Version : Has ANYONE seen a manual trans with a body lift? Need help with the shift boot.

Well, since the body lift, I've been driving around with my shift-boot unattached from the floor.

When the shifter is in 2, 4, or R, the boot bunches up quite a bit and makes it difficult (and sometimes not possible) to get the gear to engage.


Performance Accessories suggests that I "trim out the inside of the boot", which I am reluctant to do.

Without the body lift, the body sits on top of the transmission, and the shifter pivot point is about an inch or two above the floor of the cab. Now it's below the cab floor.

Any ideas on a replacement boot or a procedure to make mine work?

hmm, have you tried posting this in the 4x section? They might be able to answer you. Mark's truck is an auto, so all he had to mess with was the 4x floor shifter. And i think all it did was move the floor up , but then the 4x shifter only moves forward and back.
