Mounting Turbo Action Shifter

David Lee · 04-20-2018, 06:23 PM

I just purchased on of these to go into my cuda and am looking for some mounting options. There is no center console in the car and would like to see what other people have done

Thanks

Dave

I bolted it directly to the tunnel with 1/4 inch bolts on our A body cars. My sons was little better fitting because of old floor shifter and the tunnel was flatter.

Thanks. do you directly bolt it the floor boards and mount a little higher higher?This is for a 67 notch

Bolt it to the floor after you find out what is a comfortable location for you.

I usually space the front of the shifter up some as the neutral safety switch is tight against the floor in some applications.

On my son's 73 Dart we used washers under the back because of the angle of the cable going through the floor. Like others have said, what fits best for your comfort.

Mine is mounted on a pedestal on the tunnel bringing the shifter up an closer to me.

I made my own mount, using the 3/16 aluminum plate with specers to make it higher.

Thanks to all for the help

I use a piece of angle iron, so its sits up higher, and i weld the angle to the floor, with some flat bar on the other side for support, then bolt the shifter to angle.
