Blower Drive Kickdown Cable Installation Instructions

For TH200, TH350, TH700-R4, TH200-4R, and 4L60

General Installation Notes:

Please read instructions completely before beginning installation. If you

have any questions, please do not hesitate to call.

Do not attempt to install or adjust Kickdown Cable while engine is running.

Be sure engine, body and frame are grounded properly.

We recommend using an anti-seize lubricant on all aluminum threads

before installation. Do not over tighten while installing cables.

NOTE: Lokar’s Blower Drive Kickdown Cable Kits are designed to operate

with a Lokar Throttle Cable and BDS, Enderle or Weiand style linkage

for sideways mounted carburetors.

Step 1: Install and adjust all blower drive linkage components before

beginning to install the Lokar Blower Drive Kickdown Cable.

If a Lokar Blower Drive Throttle Cable has not previously been

installed and is being installed at the same time as the blower

drive kickdown cable, you must install the blower cable bracket

(see Lokar Blower Drive Throttle Cable Installation Instructions)

before beginning the blower drive kickdown cable installation.

Step 2: At the engine end of the blower drive kickdown cable, remove the

cable end stop. Slide the kickdown throttle body fitting, kickdown

mounting bracket and kickdown cable adjuster off of the inner wire.

Pull the inner wire out of the cable housing.

Step 3: From the engine end of the blower drive kickdown cable housing,

install the tube hold down clip onto the cable housing with the lip

pointed downwards, and slide it down to the trans tube at the end of

the cable housing. Temporarily install cable housing into transmis-

sion without the o-ring(s) and inner wire. Loosely install the bolt for

the tube hold down clip, to keep the cable housing from acciden-

tally coming out of the transmission.

Note: TH200 and TH350 transmissions could have come with either

a standard or a metric bolt for the trans tube hold down clip. For

those applications, we have included both a standard 1/4"-20 and

a metric M6 bolt and lock washer for the trans tube hold down clip.

The standard 1/4" – 20 bolt has a rounded button head, and the

metric M6 bolt has a square-shouldered socket head. The TH200-

4R, TH700-R4, and 4L60 will only have a metric bolt and washer

in the kit.

Step 4: The throttle cable adjuster goes through both the blower cable

bracket and the kickdown cable mounting bracket. If a Lokar throttle

cable has already been installed, disconnect the throttle cable inner

wire and remove the front throttle cable adjuster nut. If the throttle

cable is being installed at the same time as the kickdown cable,

insert the throttle cable adjuster into the blower cable bracket.
