or maybe you want to do a manual transmission swap? Just options.

Don’t you put ideas into my head!

Funny you mention the license plate setup. @SNLC and I were just chatting last night about this issue because I’m not a fan of a dual swingout and likely will be ditching the passenger side swing and move the license plate to the spare tire. Waiting on a potential solution from Cruiser Brothers. So where did you mount this on your truck?

Looks like you have a solution if you get rid of one swing arm. I mounted mine under the jerry can rack.

That’s pretty slick. I’m going to see what we get from @wardharris this week and go from there.

Looking to see the Beaudesert exhaust this week along with the new RTT. Beaudesert no longer ships to the United States so had to leverage some Aussie friends to make that work for us. Paying for domestic shipping AND international shipping for exhaust is not very economical at all. But.....it’s a great product and frees up @SNLC time to knock other items over the ever dwindling list.

Moving to the home stretch.

Same setup I have. (Bought from Ian years ago ironically)

This is also an option as it is made and designed for the 80 in mind:

you can put the license plate light off the rear hatch right inside

@cahill thank you. Very happy with how the shifter console worked out. It is comforting to know I can just print one again in the future if we decide to make some changes - or do another truck.

What are the chances you might be willing to sell one of these guys?

Delta sells a metal one suited for manual trans.

That is another option I'm not really a fan of it but the owner might be. I do really like what you have done with the 3d printed one and everything you have done on this very nice build.

I don’t think I want to cross that bridge just yet. There are a few other ppl that have a fair amount of time in that console concept so I need to consult with them about how it might get distributed.

Copy/paste that exhaust for the Troopy. Sounds killer
