Can't find the thread that gave several vendors that sell a shift indicator for tilt column for a overdrive trany.

Thanks

I believe you are looking for thetruckandcarshop . Not 100% sure though.

Yep, www.truckandcarshop.com sells them for $7.00 each. The part number is 70-068191. I ordered their catalog on their website and it took about 3 months to arrive. If you need an indicator lens right away, you'd probably be better off giving them a call at (800) 243-8947 or (714) 771-7871.

Thanks for the info but, I am looking for the one that comes with a housing that looks very close to stock and has the overdrive gear setup, not the one that is a clear piece that your glue on the column . I saw it in a thread but can't find it again (forgot to save it)

)
Thanks

I've never seen one like that for sale, but you can easily make one by buffing the letters off your plastic lens and putting stickers on the front side like this:

HOLY HELL $100 for a housing lens and indicator, thats ridiculous, for that price i'd just feel when i'm in gear. I've done that for 2 years on my truck its not too hard. I put the lense and housing on my tilt column but i'm running a th-400 in a 64 with a Van Tilt and Lokar Linkage so nothing lines up, i don't have the indicator on it's just there so the column looks complete.

100 bucks is only if you need a chrome housing too. $20 bucks will get the lens alone, and that is not a bad price.
