Wondering if the SM420 tranny was the standard 4 Spd for '64-'66 ?
In the service manual for '65 they introduced the NP435, heavy duty.
Would they have used the same light switch ?

Nice, thanks for doing some digging for me. Where did the pics come from? I visited the links you provided, but didnt see those pics.

**aerotruk63** · 04-07-2014, 09:17 AM

The pictures are to show you what the complete kit/parts looks like. The part numbers are to help you search for them.

Hey good idea, i was just hoping someone was tossing a trans and i could scoop one up cheap. Thanks

gmcdeadhead · 05-07-2014, 12:24 PM

what does a switch like that cost or go for?

**rideblue00** · 05-07-2014, 08:57 PM

i dunno, depends who's selling i guess. I was hoping to find a free used one or $25/$30 range. Seen newer style ones on ebay for 60 i think.

rossboss · 05-10-2014, 10:38 AM

I found a couple of them at some nos parts places by googleing the part number. One place wanted $65 and the other wanted $75.

**rideblue00** · 05-10-2014, 10:24 PM

yeah they're a bit high, thanks tho

gmcdeadhead · 05-13-2014, 11:01 AM
