Am trying to find a way to set up my back up light switcg .Am using a lokar shifter and a c4 ford tranny .Lokar does not make a kit for c4 tranny back up light .Any one have any thing they used or got let me no thanks

 

If the stock C4 neutral safety switch located on the c4 see pic of it below .(which also provides for back up lights) does not fit with your Lokar linkage, and the unit that Lokar makes for the GM trannies cant be altered for use on the C4 . You could use a toggle switch on the dash, that is what I did until I found that my B/M shifter had a built in micro switch that I ended up using. This was just my experience, hopefully someone else has a better idea and will chime in. Best of luck.

 

Yep i saw the lokar kit for GM am just wondering if any one got it to fit the c4

 

What's the C4 from? If it's from a car, 1973/77 Bronco, 1969/81 Econoline, 1978/81 F100/250, the NSS is on the transmission.

But if it's from a 1965/77 F100/350, the NSS is located on the bottom of the steering column. 1965/66 uses a different NSS than 1967/77.

 

Not shure of the year of the tranny ,and i am using a GM steering colum.

 

If you are using a GM column just use the GM neutral/backup light switch mounted on the bottom of the column...

 

I used this on my C4 too. Also get back-up lights with this switch

 

It doesn't sound like he's using the GM column shifter (I'm guessing he has the Lokar floor shifter), just a GM Column.

 

Your right moe am not using the shifter on the GM colum Am using a lokar shifter that is on the c4 tranny. Lokar does make a kit for a Gm tranny but not a kit for a c4 tranny.So that what am trying to do here

 

YOUR RIGHT mOE AM NOT USING THE SHIFTER ON MY GM COLUM.Am using a lokar shifter on my c4 tranny.Lokar make a kit for a gm tranny but not a c4 tranny that what am trying to do

 

Am shure some one has don this

 

Perhaps not. I used a column shifter with my FMX so didn't have the same problem. You may have to fabricate something.

 

Just do as Jimmy did and use a toggle switch. You can hide it under the dash if you like. It is not like you need them on all the time, during the daytime you won't need them unless you got some dummy who can't figure out your backing up. You also get the added advantage of being able to turn them on for hooking up trailers, doing something behind the truck, etc.. Don't over engineer a simple solution.
