Setting safety lockout switch on Lokar shifter
I thought it would probably be a great idea to set the safety lockout switch on my Lokar shifter/turbo 350 before I put the body back on later this week.----It was a great thought but.....I followed the instructions that came with it---loosen the banana bolt bracket, install the aluminum set-up part where the switch normally fits, centered in the slot cast into the shifter mechanism---tighten the banana bracket bolts---remove the aluminum set-up part, then reinstall the lockout switch. Works great---I got continuity in park, open switch in reverse---continuity in neutral BUT THEN I HAVE CONTINUITY THRU THE SWITCH WHEN IN DRIVE. I have tweaked this damn thing every which way but loose, and I cant get it to give me an open circuit in drive. It does give an open circuit in the 2 lower drive positions, but in the drive position closest to the neutral position, I can't get an open circuit. Has anyone else encountered this problem with Lokar shifters, and if so, how did you fix it. I certainly don't want this thing to start accidently in drive.Old guy hot rodder
Sprayed the cab, it's a long story, I had to re shoot it. Color sanding and buffing it now.
