TH350 shift linkage question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

ColoradoC10 · 02-20-2012, 11:03 AM

I am building a new exhaust system for my 69 long bed. Does anyone make an aftermarket shift linkage that deletes the bracket that mounts to the frame? Or can I remove it and use the stock linkage? It would make a lot more clearance for my exhaust if I can do that.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Someone has done that mod and posted picks. Might try a search. I'll poke around and see if I can find it.

LOKAR makes one.

Livrat, did that fit the stock chevy column with the TH350? Looks just like what I am looking for, thanks.

It's the same one I used. I had to make a small bend in the rod to get rid of some binding, but works great and was easy to istall.
