B&M 81052 Stealth Magnum Grip Pro Stick Black Automatic Shifter. - Manual

The B&M Magnum Grip Pro Stick 3 & 4-SPD shifter #81040/
#81043/ #81052 comes equipped with a three speed for-
ward (standard) pattern gate that works with most popular
three speed automatic transmissions. To use these shifters
with a reverse pattern three speed automatic transmission
or a two speed automatic transmission you will need an
optional gate plate.
The B&M Magnum Grip Pro Stick Powerglide shifter #81041/
#81044 includes the two speed gate plate, cable bracket
and the Powerglide special lever without the throttle valve
shaft hole. For use with transbrakes and full manual valve
bodies only.
An aluminum mounting bracket is available for the B&M Mag-
num Grip Pro Stick shifter with quick release pins to allow
the shifter to be removed and replaced quickly, or the shifter
can be mounted directly to the floor. An aluminum housing is
supplied with the #81040 and #81041, or it can be purchased
separately to provide a finished look to the shifter. The hous-
ing can be used either with or without the mounting bracket.
The shifter comes equipped with a neutral safety switch, and
an optional backup light switch is available. The housing
may be easily trimmed and modified to fit.

stallation. Jack stands, wheel ramps or a hoist will work fine.
Make sure the vehicle is firmly supported. Read through these
instructions before beginning installation. If you do not un-
derstand a particular step at first, go back and re-read the
step before proceeding.
Warning: If your vehicle is equipped with a locking steering
column, securing the column lock lever in the engine com-
partment in the full up position will allow the wheel to lock and
unlock but will allow the key to lock the wheel if the key is
turned to “lock” while moving, or at any time. Securing the
lock lever in any other position will prevent the wheel from
locking at any time.
If you are going to use a gate plate on the shifter, change it
now. Remove the two screws and three “E” rings that hold the
gate plate on (See Figure #1). Remove the original gate plate
and install the new gate plate. Replace the “E” rings and the
screws.
NOTE:
To use the B&M Pro Stick with a GM 4L80E or
4L85E transmission equipped with a PRNDL switch you
will need the optional accessory kit #75498 otherwise you
can use the GM bracket supplied.
Step 1. Remove the stock shift linkage:
Column Shifters: Remove all rods, levers or cables from the
column and the transmission. Place the column shifter lever
in the park position. Remove the roll pin holding the shift lever
to the column and remove the shift lever assembly.
Console Shifters: Remove the shifter mechanism from the
console. Disconnect and remove the rod or cable from the
transmission if so equipped.
Note: Shifter installation may require console modification or
complete console removal depending on your vehicle and
available space.
Step 2. If so equipped, pull the carpet away from the floor-
board where the shifter is to be mounted. Locate the shifter in
the vehicle with the stick shifted to the rearmost gate position
and mark the position of the four mounting holes in the floor.
Step 3. Remove the shifter mechanism and drill four mount-
ing holes using a 9/32” drill bit. Mark the position of the shifter
