duster pistol grip

The 71-4 Bench B Body shifter is the most user friendly of all the Pistol Grips...I've got one in my 73 RR. But, there is one small quirk with it. When installed in it's original application, that shifter is mounted to a dog bone shaped adapter that raises it up approx. 3 inches and back approx. 3 inches. It also does one other thing...tilts it back several degrees. Without that adapter, shifting into 1st or 3rd means pushing forward and down. When it's oriented correctly, those positions are more or less straight level. If you were to raise the shifter a bit, and tilt it back a hair, you'd REALLY love it!

I want to see a picture of that bracket if anyone has it.

That bracket would literally put the shifter body up, in the car and against the seat in an A body. You don't want the bracket, you just want the tilt that the bracket provides.

I can't vision how that works in my A-body? The linkage?
I tracked my shifter on the fedex website and it got one mile
away Friday@6pm and the fedex hub is closed til Monday! !!!!!

That bracket is for the B body cars ONLY. It will NOT work on an A body. It's for the B body bench seat cars, and uses the forward pad on a B/E body dual shifter pad transmission. The bucket seat B/E bodies used the rear shifter location. On an A body 833 that bracket would stick up through the floor!

The 71b body pistol grip works with both bench seat and bucket seat a body cars. You can use an E body console pistol grip in a bucket seat A body if the 71b non console grip is too high for you, but I found the E body pistol grip too short for my tastes even with buckets.
