Default Shifting a 500 manual???

Anyone know where I can get a direct bolt on toe shifter? I like the idea, I too am having trouble getting used to the heel click down to upshift.

a hacksaw takes 5 minutes.
and if you want to change it back you just weld it back together.

Ordered a toe shifter from my Cat dealer yesterday p/n 0436-239.($19.95 usa list) Fits 96-02 400,454,500 models. I want to keep the rocker one intack for when I ice fish with my heavy boots on the heel part will work better.

Mudblaster,

How do you like the Honda? I know you used to have the exact machine and setup as me and had good success (pulling all your friends out of that BC mud with it). How do you find the honda in the tough stuff? I have always liked Honda engineering and quality but their big price tag steered me to the AC. I'd like to know you thoughts.

it dosent have as much torque as the ac in the mud.
it tends to bog down easer then the ac.
thay both have there pluses and minuses but im happy with it.
