    How does the floor shifter function with the bench seat? did you install it in the factory hole? I'm thinking of converting mine while I still have my bench seat if it will work properly intill I can get my Grabber buckets re-done one day.

    it works just fine. everything is installed with factory parts. the seat sits back about 3-4 inches from the shifter base and clear everything
