This is the installation of the Wild Horses Twin Stick
shifter for the J-shift Transfer case in my 1970 Bronco.
Notice that I have a access panel cut into the top of the transmission tunnel. Having this
made the modification much easier than trying to do it from underneath the truck!

This is how the stock J-shifter looks installed on the Transfer case.
This next photo shows the stock Transfer case shift rails. Notice the
shape of the "flags".

This one shows the tunnel cover back in place, and the small amount of cutting that needed
to be done to clear the shifters. (The hole used to be square)

Here is the finished product. I bought the twin boot for the shifter, but as the
hole in the floor was too large for it to cover, I installed my old boot over the twin
boot.
All in all a very easy modification. With the access panel in the tunnel
it probably took about an hour or an hour and a half to do the installation, including
time to assemble the pieces and take the pictures. The reason I did the modification is
that my stock J-shifter was worn out, and the Twin stick shifter was the same price as a
rebuilt J-shifter.
