Tuxedo Park Column Shifter Swap...

found another parts jeep and was wondering how much of a PITA it'd be to pull off the shifter and use on my plain Jane cj....thanks!!

 

So you have a side-shift T-90? To use the top shifter, you have to take the transmission apart and remove the shift arms. Then you can drop the top-shifter cover on and it will work.

 

Oh....well thanks for the quick replies but I think that'd be too much hassle...I was hoping for quick and easy lol

Thanks again!!!

 

Like Howard says you would have to change the dash to put a column shift in a CJ 5, the Tux dash has a notch in it for the shifter to go through. I went the other way, put a floor shift in my TP, I like the solid shift in the floor shift. I kept the column shift parts, including the dash.

 

If you choose not to go with the column shift, I would be interested in the column parts. I want to put my Tux back to the original shifter.

I may go look at it Sunday I'm after the bench drivers seat, gas tank, and rims...might bring the whole thing home if the wife's not around lol I'll keep ya posted if I do!!

 

By all means, drag it home if you can. If it has the chrome bumpers, front and rear, those are nice pieces to find. Even the rear bumper mounts are hard to find. The center gate mounted license bracket and light are desirable too. Check to see if it still has the chrome Hall 701 tail lights. I'd love to have a bumper or two to send off to be replated.

I would buy the TP tail lights if you would sell them, you can pm me and I will get back to you.

Thanks, but not what I would like to find, Thanks again.
