Lokar Automatic Trans Mount Shifter TH350 User Manual

Step 8: (Continued) Transfer that measurement to the transmission (or to the engine/transmission assembly if the engine

is not installed in the vehicle). Mark that location on the shifter's main plate. The holes in the main plate that

are closest to your mark are where the FRONT banana bracket bolts will need to be installed.

Fig. 5

If you choose to install the shifter assembly where any of its mounting holes line up with the left, right, or rear

bracket mounting bolts, mount the shifter using the same bolts and lock washers that are already being used

to attach the left, right, or rear mounting brackets to the main plate. In this case, the bolts will go through the

banana bracket first, then the main plate, and finally into the mounting bracket below.

Any shifter mounting holes that do not line up with the side or rear mounting bracket bolts must use the

provided 5/16"-24 x 1/2" button head bolts and nylock nuts

(NO lock washers). Make sure the shifter assembly

is mounted using all four bolt holes.

Do not use any other length bolts.

NOTE: If mounting the shifter all the way forward, using the four bolt holes at the very front of the shifter's main

plate,

a bell crank kit (Lokar Part No. S-6999*, sold separately) will be required. Fig. 5

Step 9: If your vehicle does not already have an existing shifter opening, cut the opening now. If you are using a

Lokar shifter boot, the maximum opening for a round boot is 4" in diameter, and the maximum opening for a

rectangular boot is 4" wide by 5-1/2" long.

Before proceeding any further, the transmission should be installed in the vehicle, with the vehicle body, seat and

dashboard in place.

Step 10: Make sure the two 5/16"-24 x 3/8” button head bolts that attach the left side banana bracket to the shifter

assembly (in the curved, slotted holes) are tight. Before tightening the shifter assembly down to the main

plate, move the shifter through all the gear positions. Make sure that the shifter lever and knob do not come

in contact with the dash or the seat. The shifter assembly can be tilted forward or backward if needed by

loosening the 5/16"-24 x 3/8” button head bolts in the curved, slotted holes in the left side banana bracket.

If you ever disassemble the shifter assembly, be sure that the 5/16"-24 x 3/8” button head bolts and lock

washers are put back into the curved, slotted holes in the banana brackets. Installing longer bolts could

prevent the shifter from operating.

NOTE: If you find after installation that the shape or length of the shifter lever is not suitable for your

application, Lokar has a number of different styles and lengths of shifter lever replacement kits available for

purchase separately through our dealer network.
