the stock shifter is not going to allow you 2wd lo or the front high/low control only. you must twin stick. you can use 2 stock stick on a longer shaft bolt.

you have to make one. there is a few people that have done it in the past. if you could find a second bolt i would just cut the head off of one and the shank of another, weld.....

Twin sticks. You can use the stock shift rails one of them just has to be grinded a little bit. REALLY easy to do.

Heres how I did mine. 9/16" bolt. Sleeved the stock shifters with conduit. Ground the original rails. Notice the original linkages also. The sleeves on the rails are just pipe with a tab welded to it. I used kitamatdudes write up (http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=572617&highlight=Twin+stick+205)for pointers.
