Dumb Question:
Would a Lokar be able to handle off road vibration? Not pop out of gear?
I'm looking at an Art Carr shifter as well.
I'm also going with a Lokar floor mounted E-brake.

I've been pretty tough on my blazer since I put mine in and have yet to have any probs with it poping in and out
I want to go full manual reverse valve body and get a lokar 23inch shifter but I didnt find one at summit for the reverse pattern. Thats a killer looking shifter though.
I have the 23" nostalgia shifter. it would work with a reverse pattern. you would just have to push the button to up shift and it would ratchet down shift.
never had a problem with vibrations or popping out of gear. I have had mine 7 years now and am hard on the truck, including rowing the shifter a lot when wheeling.
the chrome is starting to pit, but I don't do the kind of upkeep that most hot-rod guys do.

Is the removeable tranny hump stock?
Did you change out the column as well or just remove the shifter?
How much $$ does it cost?

OK thanks guys for the info. Where do I get myself one I hate me column shifter and always wanted a auto floor shifter. How hard is it to install?
my 83 blazer has a stock removable hump. it makes tranny stuff real easy! i hear this is only in the blazers tho.BKinzey said:

Cool
! If that's the case about no problems popping out, then maybe I'll get a Lokar instead of an Art Carr.
I really like the 'stock look' of the Lokar
!This is an excellent reference thread
!My tranny hump is removeable, it even had the outline of the original shifter hole. So I cut along the outline for the stock look. I paid around 160 from summit and it's a 16" (maybe 18" I'll check later) shifter. Also, I changed out my colomn for a manual one.
