I have done a search and just mainly found thing's about making the shifters.I twin sticked my Chevy NP 205 but I had to grind some thing's on the shift rails.Is this needed for the Ford version?If so does anyone have any pic's or links to see what has to be done?I have not done a Chevy in a few years and do not know what I did with the magizine with the info on how to do it.Or will I just get lucky and beable to make different shifters and go with the flow on a Ford?

The process is exactly the same...the only thing different is that the shifting rails will be "reversed" on the Ford versus the Chevy...The two are basically mirror images of one another.
On the Chevy, the front rail is on the right and the rear rails is on the left, while the Ford has the rear on the right and the front to the left.

I have only done a Ford 205...followed the pics in one artical...not sure which rag it was in anymore. Also looked here before I started grinding. The mod is the same regardless of case...

There are three or four sites with good pictures and descriptions. Google on twin stick 205. As said, the Ford is a mirror image of the Chevy, so just follow the directions. Took me a total of about 1/2 hour to do the mod with the tcase on the bench.

Be carefull to not grind too far, it will allow wrong combinations.
