    Don't forget the blinders that cover 1/3 of the side widows ! Because I can see too well. Can not have that.

    Hey Fellers I’m also extending my shifter by 12” for comfort due to it is very low and hits the lower portion of my seat.....I can NOT ride with my seat on the floor due to ruptured disks in my neck and back....I need the air ride seat to not bottom out and jar me to bad and shifter is aweful low......I am looking at ordering all the parts online but my question is on the airlines and fittings themselves....I know they are 5/32 but are they 5/32 ID and 1/4” OD???? If so airline and quick connect would both need to be obviously the same....does anyone have any idea about this becuz I am seeing several dif options on the airlines and quick connects online?????

    I'd rather ride of the floor than bottom out any day.

    I believe the 5/32 is the OD.
    Air line kit for Eaton Fuller Transmissions. Fit's 4 line shift knobs.

    I heard you extended the shifter so it wouldn't impale you during a roll over. What do you guys think about that?

    Why ask what other think about your truck. If you like it who gives a ### what others think you will just get a lot of useless BS from couch drivers trying to be funny and hijacking the post.
     
  9. is that those ape hangers like some hippie Chopper back in the day??
    or just a few extra inches off of the standard shifter
