FFG Coyote Swap 6R80 Transmission Shift Lever
Keep the column shifter. That is the whole job. Three on the tree is one of the defining details of a classic truck interior. It sits right; it feels right; and a floor shifter never quite replaces what it does for the cab. Dropping in a 6R80 should not cost you that. This lever gives the column linkage a proper place to land on the modern transmission. Shift rod or shift cable; either way you get a direct connection instead of a bracket somebody bent in a vise on a Saturday. It is 3/16 inch steel; powder coated black. Thick enough for real shifting forces and finished so it still looks intentional the day someone puts their head under the truck. Small part. It is the difference between a thoughtful build and a parts-swapped truck.
Install Level: Beginner - bolts to the transmission manual shift shaft
Sold individually.

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 6R80 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 6R80 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 6R80 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.
