NV3550 and D20 twin stick set up

[abielenberg]

So we started installing the twin stick set up from broncograveyard and we ran into a few issues. We did the nv3550 swap and kept the d20. But as we were installing the kit, we noticed that the right hand stick is hitting the shift lever. and the lower part of that stick is running into the bracket on the tcase. nothing is lining up at all. any help would be great.

Mine didn't fit out of the box either. Had to bend them a little to clear.

Take some pics and we can try and help you more.

My JB Fab levers were easily adjusted with a propane torch and a short piece of 1/2" pipe.

WH ones here - had to heat and bend them too.

You sure the mounting bracket is in the right set of holes? Should be in the top hole resting snug against the shifter housing.

I have the WH twin stick on my D20 and NV3550 and they fit fine with no mods. I wonder what the problem is that you guys are having? Post pics.

I bent my WH ones out of convenience. When in high, they were too far back and interfered with my center console. So I bent them both directly forward. Now in low they they're about 1/2" off the dash and in high they're plenty out of the way...

Which D20, early or late (T or J)?

And I had to heat and bend all three shifters on my 77...
