    Just get the Top shift conversion A kit and then get whatever shift lever you want to run with the MC plate

    The conversation kit A is 177, which means I’d be getting the shifter, base and the t case block of plates for 68 extra. I guess I was wondering if there is another brand I’m missing for cheaper than that?

    Yea. I don't know of anyone else that sells those parts unless you go to a scrapyard and harvest them yourself.

    Wow it crazy how Covid has driven the prices up in just a few months. If I recall correctly, I was able to snag a TG dual case for about $720 w/tax & shipping (using their 15% code)

    Are the drive line lengths pretty straight forward? Or do I have to build it all and lock it up to get actual length needed

    Yours will be the same as mine. adds 8.5in iirc. Just the added length of the crawlbox unit measured from end of one adapter to the other.
    So lengthen front by that much, and then shorten the rear by that much.

    That's for sure. I was checking back in my emails and I paid alot less than that for a Marlin dual case fully assembled, granted that was around 9 years ago when Marlin actually had shit in stock LOL.

    Deposit officially placed on the NorthWest Fab EcoCrawler.
    Curious to hear if anyone has received theirs.
    Mine should be here end of October.

    Haven't gotten mine yet. I was one of the first to pre-order, when I last talked with them to confirm my pre-order on June 30th, they told me I would get mine early September, so we'll see.

    They actually lost my preorder in everything. Saw people were placing deposits and I heard nothing so reached out to them and they made it right.
    They offered to push me up to September since that's technically where I would've fallen with when I reached out to them but I need to move my gas tank in order to fit everything so I'm not in too much of a rush.

    I never moved my tank and it all fits fine. How long is the EcoCrawler? If it're more then the usual 8.5" that might make things a real PITA.
