TF999 tranny and floor shifter
B&M makes a nice cable floor shifter. Locar makes linkage style floor shifter. Summit racing is good source to check them out. I don't believe CJs had a floor shifter for the auto, only column.
In some of the reviews people are more in favor of the non "ratchet" type, I need to look into exactly what that's all about.
It's mainly a racing style shifter meaning you can pull it into first then rachet up through the gears, allows you to hold in a gear longer or less than the programmed trans shift points, also prevents hitting natural while in the top gear, locks out reverse too. Manual trans shifters that use this style are called v-gates.
So is it personal preference thing ? or is one actually better than the other for off roading ? Not sure it would matter for the type of use I would be putting it in.
I don't really see need for one in day to day offroading, might be a hindrance in certain situations. I have offloaded only a couple of times with a auto and I let the tranny do it's thing. I prefer a manual for offroading.
For years I prefered a Manual, But an unfortunate Motorcycle accident left me with half a left leg, so clutching is a real bear, no left ankle, and with a size 13 shoe there's not much room on the floor board.
That sucks, an auto is a good choice then.

Yes it is and yes it does
I have a Lokar floor sifter in my CJ7. I also have the TF999. I love them both. Most people think its still a stick. I'll look for some pictures of when I was installing it, I have to go thu google (i upgraded computers). It was a pretty easy install adjusting is the hardest part. Lokar was great to work with. I would check out their site, then order form summit. I think that's what I did. Found them but I can't attach.
