I have to agree that response is not quick but this is a side job.  It 
actually pays to call in early evening or on Sat to get him.  He is a very 
nice guy and takes care of everything.  It does work on a center shift, you 
may have to buy the shifter tower that moves the shifter forward like I did. 
It all depends on which transmission you buy.   One of the people in our 
club bought the whole setup including transmission from Pete.

A friend on mine installed the rans from smitty: great. They take time to
answer, do not receive credit card but they are serious and professional. 
They
just live in the 1960's as when the car were new and have no hurry in 
live...
The only downside to the conversion s that you end up with a center
shift....that is why I have not done it in my bn2. My friend is a bn7 so I
have no experience on bj8
