Van tilt

I picked up a van tilt today, it has no neutral safety switch. Can I buy a new one or should I try to get a truck tilt safety switch if I can find one?? If so where can I buy one? Thanks

Re: Van tilt

I prefer to use the truck neutral safety switch as the existing harness plugs will connect to the switch. (B/U lights and starter).

Either way the switch has to be relocated as it will not fit the truck in the Van location.

Any board vendors will probably have the truck switch in stock and most auto parts stores have them available also.

Re: Van tilt

If the van still has the transmission, it may be on it.

Re: Van tilt

Keep in mind that not all neutral saftey switches are the same and the one that will go on the van column needs the fullsize tab that will go into the slot you cut probably 1/4" wide or so. Some are designed to saddle a real small upturned tab inside that is part of the tube
