I think that's about the only one available that will directly bolt into our cars. With some mods a hurst pro matic 2 can be made to work.

That was in my 04. I can tell you if it's a daily it gets old after a while though.

Had to make a lot of custom bushings for the stock trans linkage end to connect the shift cable.

Here's my write up

Your gonna have to cut up the shifter trim to fit back over this shifter as well.

If I was gonna install another ratchet id prolly get the b&m. I had the pro matic alread when I did this so it was free sort of.

I actually just pulled this back out and put the stock shifter back in.
