PM me. I have a Hurst shifter that was made for the 49-53 Ford 3 speed transmission that I tried to use on a 49 Merc O/D trans that I put in my tonner. I was able to make it function with some modification, but the shift lever ended up being too close to the fuel tank which supports the seat in low and high gears plus wasn’t too pleased with the feel of the shift. I ended up going a different direction and I think that hardware is sitting on the shelf in my shop.
