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.

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 Case Mount 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 Case Mount 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 Case Mount Shifter system.
