i actually like this better than what you're talking about. you lose a lot of mechanical advantage if you do it your way. the only thing i worry about here is the shift rails binding since they arent supposed to have side load on them... and leakage.
heres your rear cable shifters creighton

ill probably do the rear cable shifters cause either way I want cable shifters, so I can pu the shifters where I want to

cable sounds the way to go... i went with the hard bolted type and i dont think i saved any money one bit
I think i am going to use these cables and their heavy duty push pull levers

i think those are the ones that a guy on pirate used when installing a 2005 dodge cummins motor, and dodge tranny onto a np205, in a bronco, look in the ford section for bronco cummins swap or something like that i think the user name was vetteboy or something like that it will prolly bea couple pages back.
He who dies with the most **** wins, after seeing your collection you are in the lead no doubt!
i think its the same, but its a 12valve motor i do know that. not that it matters
ok, i just order the cables and shifters from mcmaster-carr. I think i am going to drill and tap the ends of the shift rails. and attach the cables that way

take lots of pics. I want to see how well it works with the mcmaster carr shifter
I will, the cables are rated for 130lbs push and 150lbs pull, and the shifters for 200/200

ok, today I got new breathers installed on both cases. I used some 1/4 npt elbows and flare fittings, drilled and tapped new holes. I also put sight tubes on both of the cases.

Ok, I need to make another mount to support the 2nd case. What have everyone used. I was thinking about modifying a stock TJ transmission mount so that I have two of them.
One on the transmission and one on the 300, but I don't know if it would like that much torque, It stock mount isn't happy right now, even in 2hi

i still need to build a support for my second case... all the weight of both cases is on an alumnum adapter
give us some pics of the back and bottom of the cases so we can get an idea of what you have to work with
