Forward shift t case on R151F?

This is an R151F. I am correct in thinking that it has a forward shift t-case?





If that's true, I need to find an top shift, put it behind the front shift with an adapter, and then be good to go?

Or otherwise, get another forward shift + top shift conversion + 23 spline input?

Or am I just all confused?

Yes, the t-case shifter comes out of the back of the transmission.

Yes, assuming a 23 spline case, if not get a 23 spline conversion kit for a 21 spline case.

OK...So I'll have four sticks all in a row unless I get a double shifter ($180) from Front Range or something?

And I need to put this 4.7 gear setup ($400 geez) in the rear t-case for an "Ultimate" setup correct?

I guess no RF1A came stock with 4.7? And use this conversion ($90) if it is forward shift.

Anyone else think it's weird that Inchworm sells Marlin gears?

Finally, the adapter ($325).

I wonder why Marlin stopped selling his...I'd rather buy one from there.

Man, it the cost piles up quick don't it? I'm already at least at $800. Better save my pennies.

are you running the R151 turbo tranny also? If so that already has a lower first gear than most of the other toy tranny's including the v6's. I'm running 38's on stock 4.10s with dual cases and stock transfer case gears. I don't think that extra low gearing in the transfer case is necessary although I'll be a little happier when I get the 5.33's for my Dana 60's on the street. save yourself some money and skip that part till you test it out

oh and not 4 shifters in a row. you'll have ur trans, then the first reduction box h,n+L, then your rear tcase shifter with the normal shift pattern. UNLESS you get a twin stick rear. twin sticks is not worth it unless your running a front and rear locker or rear driveshaft disconnect. Then u'd have 5 shifters with the twin stick and rear driveshaft disconnect!

What exactly does that let you do? Drive with just the front?
