Transfer case cable shifter suggestions?

Lou said:
There is a stick that can be purchased off Ebay. It will require modification to work, I had to cut the short end and drill a new hole for the retaining clip but it works.

I just checked and it doesn't look like the seller has any listed for sale right now. His Ebay name is Rodslama.

I looked around a bunch and there are a few others available (ie steinjager, RC) but the reviews all pointed out fitment issues. Savvy was the only one that had rave reviews. Sorry forum gods, I don't take your word blindly and am a cheap bastard so I am always looking for a more cost effective method to get the same results. For the small price difference there was no question Savvy was the way to go.

Sure you're correct. I did work 4 years in a speed shop, we did some innovations in house and outsourced others. Once we could start sourcing pieces from here or there and just pre-assembling, things got pretty cheap to produce within about a year or so though.

I just don't get why they're so expensive, looks like $20 of materials and maybe another $20 in labor, hipshot guess but dang this seems high $$$

Hell that's just a piece of 3/8"? Rod with a flat and threaded on one end, I could make that thing with a torch and hammer for $5. 🤣

Cable shifters take the vagueness out of the system, and it is good to know you are positively engaged ...or not. They are a nice , true upgrade.

I can shift my '03 with 2 fingers. If I started over, it would be one of my first purchases.

While we're on this subject, what about replacing the shifter lever with a "real" stick? What's the drill?

Hey I just did that to mine. Going install very shortly. Combining the new shifter with a custom front and middle console and ammo can storage. Just took it in for painting.
