    Hey guys, I am trying to figure out for sure what my shift patterns should be to
    Make sure I'm not missing any gears.

    My setup is as follows,
    Inchworm crawlbox with a Tacoma J shift rear case.
    RAD triple stick shifter setup.
    - that means my shifters from Left to Right are:
    Left stick- rear case left rail
    Center stick- inchworm crawl box
    Right stick- rear case right rail.

    If someone could lay out the shift patterns for me from Left to Right with certainty that would be great thanks!

    Shift pattern would be from left to right: 2wd/4wd, crawl box, rear case h/l

    So you have a dual case set-up? Kind of a vague post... post some pics.

    Trying to figure mine out as well but am only twin sticks. I have the inchworm prerunner adapter, 2.28 crawl box with 4.7 transfer case. Crawl box has one shifter, Tcase has the twin sticks. From just messing with them in the garage, I am assuming the passenger stick is 2wd/4wd and the middles on the other shifters are neutral. Is foward or back high or low? Thanks.

    I don't know that's what I am Trying to figure out as well, that's the same setup as me. My shifters are just a forward shift twin stick. The rear case shifters are in line with the front case shifter.

    Uhh yes exactly what my post says inchworm crawl box with a j shift case behind that. What is vague about it? I'm listing what shifters correspond to which case/rail and want to know the pattern on each shifter. H-N-L etc.

    The high low shifter is on the driver side. Easy to check by cycling the shifters and turning the input shaft as well.

    Uhhh, uhh, OK Beavis, next time say dual cases. Crawl boxes are equipped with a J shift.
    I suggest crawling under your truck to figure out the linkage configuration... uhh.

    Malburg,
    Post a pic. Typically, the twin stick is as follows:
    Left stick is for going from 4hi to 4lo with a detent in the middle for neutral.
    Right stick is 2hi to 4hi.

    As for the 2.28 case, can't answer that as I don't have one.

    Hope this helps.

    For the crawl box it only contains one shift rail and that's the hi/neutral/low shift rail. There's a piece of keystock you weld onto the shift rail to keep the shifter in place since you don't use the 4wd shift rail anymore

    So left stick is 4hi/neutral/4 low and right stick is 2hi/2low? That makes more sense now. To put the truck in 4low, would it be 4low, 2low? And vice versa for 4high?

    The left (drivers side) is for the hi/low range and the right (passenger) stick is for 2wd/4wd. The benefit to the twin stick is that you can access 2wd low which is normally locked out with an interlock pill in the case. If you one step further and get yourself a dana 300 twin stick you can do a front dig too :D
