Re: NP233 electric shift to manual shift swap

Well.... it's finally MY turn!!!
My "new" NP233C just arrived today!
The unit is from an 03 Blazer.
This will be my first time upgrade.
I confirmed 32-spline.
Unit weighs only 68lbs, and can easily be lifted or carried by one hand.
I unboxed it.. and confirmed the 4x4 selector operation and that everything turns.
I like the idea of the cable shifter bolted to the side of the seat.
I would like it below the seat facing forward.
My basic gasket/seal set arrived today as well ($12 from Amazon)
I am considering the Lokar S-7100 shifter-cable kit ($50 from Summit)
It looks like it has most of what I'll need.. I'll make or modify as needed.
I desperately need the 4-Lo for some of the work I do, often towing a heavy lift to off-road job-site locations.
I'm excited about advancing to the next level and finally having a REAL 4x4 van!
