It seems that making or finding linkages for a 3spd floor shift (In a 1960 C10) is very difficult, well may be out of my ability anyway. So how about this. What if a pull a complete 3spd on the tree setup from a different 60-63 C10 truck? (Steering column,all shifting linkages...etc.) It should all bolt right into my truck...right?? Help! and thank you! -Danny
( Yeah if I had OD I'd be proud to have a 3 on the tree! I shift faster with it anyway!)
Thanks,as always -Danny
