Funny thing you talk about that shifter. I have custom built some parts for a RLC control shifter. Some I was still able to get. Below is the Eaton PFD on the RLC controls last pages 30-33.
It will be needed to make the shifter come through the right spot in the floor. i have only seen two rigs with RLC control from factory.

That would have been a nice addition to my old GMC with the forward lever vs that stupid bent forward lever they used in the 9500's. Trying to hit the rear gear positions put a crick in your shoulder.

Can relate to that S-hook set up shifter levers in the old 9500s, had a few oddball IHC tractors 2275s and I cannot remember if was a late Loadstar series had the wrap around bastardized shifters, half the engine(Small Cam Cummins or 6L Detroit was IN the cabs). Mack DM Side Saddles had a Oddball ignorant set up. I like the design of the u-jointed RLC, does the offset lever pivot cab mount or plate mount to trans? Not seen that before.
