Folding Shifter Delete & Rotary Knob Swap

[cobrar97]

I just confirmed with Jesse that the GWM is TRON protected on 2024+ trucks. We have to find a TRON capable shift knob.

Well that doesn't sound promising.

There is a 2024 Expedition available to rent in Houston. If everyone wants to chip in on the rental cost I’ll hook my mongoose up to it and test for TRON.

Yep...put me on the list. My '25 is schedule for June...so after getting a group to get the cost down, let me know how much and I'll chip-in for it. Thanks!

I can print you one.

I'd gladly pay you for one of the front mounted styles with the cubby in the back (no charger). But I have a 2024, and apparently we don't have a way to utilize the rotary knob yet. :/

How much to rent?

Also just go find a used/new one on a lot and go for a short test drive ??

Test drive won’t tell us if it has TRON. I have to get into The canbus.

About $200 for the rental

Fair enough

I’ll toss ya something via Venmo/cash app if others will get in as well. When you do that are you going to pull the shifter as well to verify part numbers and whatnot?

I want this to work!

Has anyone tried running jumper from the drive mode dial on the dash to the drive mode button on these shifters to see if it will function? Any idea which pins would be tapped?

That would make sense.

That would make sense.

Perfect. Now let’s get a couple other people to chip in! I’ll toss 50-75 at it for ya.

Front Shifter / Rear Cubby files are ready as well. This prototype is available for $40 + shipping, first come first serve.

The 6mm magnets are already hard to install and barely strong enough. To center you would have to go down to 4mm magnets.

After your final design is complete will you be doing a video or pictorial showing all the pieces and parts used and the install process? Even providing your trim piece with any necessary hardware (eg. magnets) would be nice too (at a profit on those parts of course). A complete solution with instructions. At least in the future when it's all come together.

My wife has a 24 Expedition. I can look at it if you want.

@Ajzride


EDIT> Just scanned my wife's Expedition and it does not have TRON.

Then we will have to find a 2025 to test.
