Does Bills have a crash though reverse for a 90?
Thoughts on a crash through versus lift ring?

Mine's a lift-ring. I would have preferred a crash-through but forgot to discuss that detail with Bill. That said, is it really possible to change from lift-ring to crash-through just by changing the shift lever? Seems to me that functionality must be deeper down in the transmission. ?????

Yes it is. My 94 had the stock, lift ring shifter & the Hurst does not. I find the lift ring to be more of a nuisance than a benefit anyway. Who speed shifts or misses 6th gear?

My thoughts exactly Jerry, but I don't see one for a 90 without the lift ring. Did the 94's come with the same lift ring as my 90?

The crash-thru doesn't have anything to do with the shifter itself... the detent pad and shift rod are different if I recall what i saw when it was explained to me. On mine, I had to pay extra to swap the 95-up ZF parts during the rebuild. I decided to do it because I didn't have the lock-out ring for use with my stock shifter. and I was used to it because my C4 previous to this one was a 95 and i liked the heavy detent.
