Cable Operated Shifters
Why Choose a Cable Operated Shifter?
- The Cable Operated Floor Mount Shifter works well for Trucks and Vans that require the Shifter to be mounted further forward in the vehicle in relation to the transmission lever due to transmission or seat placement
- Works well in applications where there is a lot of space between the transmission and the floor, which can prevent the Case Mount, Floor Mount, and Tail Mount Linkages from working
What's Included
When you purchase a Cable Operated Shifter, everything you need for a secure and straightforward installation is included. Each kit comes with the necessary mounting hardware, a neutral safety switch, and Cable Operateded installation instructions. You’ll also choose your preferred shifter lever and knob combination, ensuring a custom fit and look for your build.
Applications
Our Cable Operated Shifter is compatible with a wide range of automatic transmissions from GM, Ford, and Chrysler. This includes the TH350, TH400, 700R-4, 4L60, 4L60E, 200-4R, AOD, C4, C6, and 4R70W/AODE. Designed to mount directly to the transmission Cable Operated, it ensures a secure, precise installation.
Safety
The shifter is designed with safety features to help prevent accidental gear engagement and unintended vehicle movement. A positive lock-out mechanism in Park and Neutral ensures that the shifter cannot be moved into Reverse or Park from Neutral or a forward gear unless the push button on the knob is deliberately pressed. Additionally, a properly wired and adjusted neutral safety switch prevents the vehicle from starting in any gear other than Park or Neutral, adding an extra layer of protection during ignition.
Various Lever Options
Customize your Cable Operated Shifter with a variety of lever options to suit your style and driving position. Choose from straight, single bend, double bend, or bench bend levers—each crafted from high-quality mild steel and available in black Cerakote or chrome plated finishes. Lever lengths range from 4", 6", 8", 10", 12", 16", 23", all the way up to 32", allowing you to position the shifter knob exactly where you need it.
Various Knob Options
When you purchase a Lokar Cable Operated Shifter, you can configure it any way you wish by choosing from a wide array of shift knobs to suit your individual taste. Lokar has always been known for their exclusive lock-out pushbutton shifters for safety and convenience, and that trend continues on with the Cable Operated Shifter. You can choose from any of our push-button shifter knobs, and most are available in polished, brushed, or black finishes—the choice is yours.
Prefer a more classic look? We also offer a Knob Adapter that allows you to use a traditional knob without the push button, as well as Muscle Car Knob Adapters that let you install vintage-style shift knobs while maintaining compatibility with the Cable Operated Shifter system.
