Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 147 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: May 2005 Posts: 147 | I bought a big bolt from fellow bolter. My dumb question is. What is the little lever for on my shifter lever. It attached to the side of the shift lever with some mechanical linkage running along the side? Thanks -R  | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 684 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 684 | It sounds like the lever you raise up, to allow the shifter to go all the way to the left and down for reverse gear. | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 . | | . Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 | Sounds right to me, if it is a pre AD transmission, or possibly a really early AD?

That is the lock out lever for the reverse. 1947s still came with the non-synchro transmissions. The 2 speed rear ends that use the switch on the shifter are more of a button that you pop up and down. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 1,144 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 1,144 | 47 still was using under mounted dash switch for 2 speed rear as well. pointer on top would indicate high or low position. good luck | | |
