I am using an r150 behind a Mopar 318 but of course Toyota didn’t bless the lower performance versions with easy to install short shifter setups!
So I decided to buy an R154 shifter and design a spacer to make it work.
It unfortunately took some grinding down of the ball which is a bit ghetto but it works smooth and shifts easy and is drastically shorter.
Great upgrade for old Toyota pickups.
These transmissions seem very underrated and IMO the iron Midplate is probably most of why. The later AR5 counterparts have aluminum as does the jeep ax15’s but share the bellhousing to trans bolt pattern so they can be swapped around a bit.
Adding a send cut send link soon to the spacers I used.
