 A couple quick questions:
	1. I though in stock configuration, the Dana 20 has two shifters and 
the Dana 300 has one.  Never the less, if its got any floor shifter at all, 
its not the single speed.  Plus I dont think they offered it before '74 
model year.
	2. Who (and how could you have possibly) had trouble shifting a 
Pathfinder into 4lo? :)
