    I don't know about a commercially made shifter for the toploader, but there was a swap you could do using a Jeep four speed shifter and adapt it to the top of a top loader. There was a similar swap for the top loader three speed. I was going to make that modification to the three speed in my 27 but could never find the jeep parts I needed. Essentially the jeep setup bolted right on where the top plate is now. You needed to remove the side arm assemblies and block off the holes, plus some other mods.

    Been a while since I saw that article, so my info is a little fuzzy. I also recall something called an X shifter that was sort of what you describe, but not sure what transmission it fit.
