Awesome. Thank you for checking back in on this. I have the shifter. I guess it's time to start cutting some of the inner structure of the console to make room for mounting.

Atomic I think had a picture of what the 12” looks like in the NBS dash as I think someone used one of his plates and just trimmed the plastic around the gauge cluster, I don’t see the pic showing up under Atomic’s post on my iPad though

Here is my truck with my 12in Holley dash with no trimming: https://atomicfabandperformance.com/...-3holleybezel/

I hate to keep bringing this one back up for you. But, I've got another question. Shifter is installed. It was pretty straightforward with enough trimming to the guts of the console. But, I'm having one issue. Go from Park to Reverse and indicator in dash shows it's in Reverse. But, go from Reverse to Neutral and indicator shows it's in Park again. Go from Neutral to Drive and indicator shows it's in Drive. Any idea what in the poop this is? Shift linkage adjustment, maybe????

If it was fine with the stock shifter I’d double check the alignment in all gears. Pull the cotter pin and the cable from the lever in ever single gear and make sure it doesn’t move into place. If that checks out, clock the NSS to match better.

I finally got around to swapping the front coils and DJM drop shocks to the QA1 double adjustable setup and the adjustment is amazing. I should have some track time next month but the other pics below are how it responded at the track before and you can see there there isn’t much front end rise (wasn’t maxing out the shock, just no rebound).

Yes, it worked right before. And, I can definitely check adjustment on cable and lever again. But, how in the world do I clock the NSS? I haven't had to replace one on it before. I thought it was a fixed position kind of thing. And, thank you very much for the advice. It is appreciated.

I'm running a coilover conversion from AFP on my 4x4 with double adjustable viking shocks. It's amazing the difference in these things getting rid of the torsion bars. Keep up the progress reports. It's awesome

All you have to do is loosen the two bolts that mount it to the trans and rotate it. If I’m alone, I’ll put the trans in reverse and rotate it back and forth (key on) to find the middle of reverse on the NSS (using reverse lights). If you have a helper, just barely break the bolts loose so there is good resistance and have them cycle through the problem gears and you rotate until it displays what it should.

Good deal. Thanks for the info. I'll give it a try in a day or two. Wanna play with it a little bit before climbing under it again. LoL
