Just curious, why you would have to relocate your NSS? I have a 69 and I put a 2004R in it and had to move my NSS from the steering column to the slapstick housing since the rod linkage from the tranny to the column wouldnt work with a overdrive tranny. Got my NSS conversion for my slapstick at Shiftworks. Is the console smaller in a 68 then the 69 console?
I relocated it because the slapstick didn't have the tabs that the NSS screwed into. I also bought the American autowire upgrade kit that relocates the NSS to the shift linkage on the TH400. Console is the same size 68 or 69
Ok, I understand, that makes sense. Since you go tthe upgraded wiring kitm did you get a kit to mount the NSS on the slapstick?
No, there isn't a place to mount it. I believe in 69 they moved the NSS off the shifter. I do like the slapstick over the 68 because you can "bump" it for faster shifts. I also did the shift kit which will keep the gears in 1st or 2nd if you have it in that gear until it's shifted. If in Drive, it will shift automatically. Negative to this though is that it could get bumped into 2nd or 1st while going 60 mph in 3rd.
Yes, the 69 moved the NSS to the steering colummn, I was saying before in this topic that I put a 2004R in my 69 and the park, neutral saftey linkage from the tranny to steering column doesnt fit and you have to move the NSS to the slap shifter to almost the exact same place as the 68 to get the NSS to work properly. They make a kit so you can install the NSS to the slapstick at SHIFTWORKS , Check it out in that link, incase your interested.
