Shift Your Ride with Ease 

Rodders and muscle car fans have been utilizing GM’s famous Turbo-Hydramatic three-speed automatics in their builds for decades, and with good reason, they are simple transmissions that can take great amounts of power and are plentiful in salvage yards. The aftermarket offers all manner of rebuild and performance upgrades for these transmissions as well, making their use even more prolific. We have built this universal floor-mount shifter for these applications with all the features you would need to allow easy control of your GM three-speed automatic to get you on the road quickly and at a great value! 

Built to Take Every Shift 

Our new Side Detent Shifter works with all TH200, 250, 350, and 400 transmission models. The shifter assembly is made from steel to take years of abuse and features a robust reverse lockout system to prevent inadvertent shifter movement into reverse during spirited manual shift driving. Positive shift position detents provide feedback confirmation as to what gear position you are in while preventing you from over-running 2nd gear. We have included both a neutral safety switch and reverse light switch right on the shifter body that can be easily wired into stock wiring or any aftermarket wire harness solution. The shifter lever has been crafted with a 7/8-inch center to center spacing using 3/8-16 threaded holes to mount any two-bolt manual shift lever of your choice (shift lever and knob not included). The provided five-foot shifter cable allows multiple routing choices to clear exhaust and vehicle crossmembers, while the included cable mounting bracket supports both side and bottom mounting locations on your transmission. 

Simple Bolt-On Solution 

Our Side Detent Shifter is the perfect solution for your GM Turbo-Hydramatic-equipped project and mounts solidly to your transmission tunnel with the included hardware. Simply locate the shifter assembly, noting dash and seating constraints for your shift lever of choice, and drill four 5/16-inch holes to secure the shifter assembly in place. An additional 1-inch hole will need to be drilled for shifter cable pass through to route the shifter cable from the shifter to the transmission. The included vacuum-formed ABS plastic top cover provides a finished look to the shifter and is easily trimmed to match the contours of your transmission tunnel. A chrome-plated steel trim ring and a stitched black vinyl multi-panel shift boot finishes off the installation for a classic appearance. The top cover can even be fitted under your carpet if you choose so that only the trim ring and shift boot/lever are above the carpet for a near “factory” look.

Complete Shifter Kit Includes:

  • Shifter unit
  • ABS plastic top cover
  • Black vinyl stitched boot
  • Chrome-plated steel base ring
    • 6.75" x 5.25" rectangular frame
    • Stainless steel mounting screws
  • 5ft long shift Cable
  • Neutral switch/backup light switch
  • All related hardware

Overall Assessment

Customers appreciate the product for its confirmed high-quality, practical design, and ease of use. Its sturdiness, usability, and safety make it preferred over competitors. Reviews highlight the shifter's quality materials, positive detent, adjustable settings, and its applicability in various vehicles, from trucks to hot rods. Users note that it offers good value for the money and recommend it as a go-to product for customizing cars. Despite some comments about unclear instructions, customers still find the product highly satisfactory and would buy again. The floor shifter's design is commended, particularly for its heavy-duty parts and brackets, and it is also perceived to be user-friendly and easy to install. However, it is not recommended for racing due to its detent mechanism.

I basically used this because of the simplicity and that I would not have to cut a huge hole in my floor for the Lokar shifters and really wanted a floor shifter with the looks of a manual, I was told multiple times this wouldn't work on a 4R70 and it works but I did have to use my OEM shift bracket and a B&M floor shifter install kit that required swapping my trans shift shaft out 40504. I checked the 4r70's gears to the shifter multiple times to be sure and is in same location. Does seem like a lot of work but not a fan B&M ratchet shifters. I chose to use the TH350 Shifter because it has same shift pattern gears as the 4r70, one thing that was a huge modification was regrinding the hole the detent shift lever to mount on the 4r70 shift shaft. Another thing I found out is the side detent boot ring is not the same bolt pattern as the Lokar one I used, very odd, none the less it's installed and works, I do wish the side detent was a little tighter to keep in gear.
