Messed around with the shifter this afternoon and got it working! I couldnt decide between going linkage or a cable, trans is set up for a cable but column is set up for linkage. A friend gave me a bag of parts that says lokar shifter linkage kit and it had an arm that fits the shift shaft on a gm 700, 4L60, ect trans so I pulled the stock allison arm and what do you know, that piece fits the shaft so I pulled the yoke off an old 700 trans I have and it went right on to the ally. Then I wondered how the cross shaft from the frame to the trans might line up. Took the frame bracket off the top frame rail and stuck it on the top side of the bottom frame rail and it lined up pretty good so couple of holes later its bolted on. Then the rod had to be lengthened about 12 inches to reach it and it looks like it will work just fine, shifts great. One more item checked off the list.
