FFG Coyote Swap 10R80 Transmission Shift Lever
Keep the column shifter. The column shift is one of the details that makes a classic truck cab feel like a classic truck cab. It belongs there. A floor shifter never quite replaces it. So dropping a modern 10R80 into the build should not cost you the interior you have been working toward. This lever gives you a direct connection between your factory-style column shifter and the 10R80. Shift rod or shift cable; either one. No fabrication and no bracket welded up on a Saturday because nothing else fit. 3/16 inch steel; powder-coated black. Thick enough for real shifting forces and finished so it disappears under any classic dash. The column shifter stays. The modern drivetrain performs. Both at once; which is the whole point of building this way.
Install Level: Moderate
Works with a column shifter rod or a shift cable.
3/16 inch steel; powder-coated black finish.
Order by transmission; the 6R80 and 10R80 levers are separate part numbers.
Fat Fender Garage has designed this shift lever to help you keep the column shifter in your classic truck. This shift lever will allow you to easily attach the column shifter rod or shift cable to your modern 6R80 or 10R80 transmission.
Keep What Makes Your Truck Yours
The column shifter is one of the most defining details of a classic truck interior. It belongs there. It looks right, it feels right, and it connects you to the character of the vehicle in a way a floor shifter never quite replaces. So when you're dropping a modern 10R80 into your build, you shouldn't have to give it up.
We designed this shift lever specifically so you don't have to compromise. Whether you're running a shift rod or a shift cable, this lever gives you a clean, direct connection between your factory-style column shifter and your modern 10R80 transmission — no fabrication, no workarounds, no giving up the interior you've been building toward.
This is the kind of detail that separates a thoughtful build from a parts-swapped truck. The column shifter stays. Your modern drivetrain performs. Both things are true at the same time.
Built the Way It Should Be
3/16" steel construction — Thick enough to handle real shifting forces, built to outlast the truck itself
Powder-coated black finish — Clean, durable, and at home under any classic dash
Compatible with shift rod or shift cable — Works with however your column linkage is set up
Fits 10R80 transmissions — Engineered specifically for modern Ford powertrain swaps
The Details That Define a Build
Every decision you make in a build either adds to the story or takes something away from it. Keeping your column shifter adds to it. It tells anyone who climbs in that this truck was built with intention — that the person behind it cared about every detail, not just the ones that are easy to see.
That's what this lever is about. Not just function, though the function is exactly right. It's about building a truck that feels complete.
