C6-Lokar shift kit

Post by sinnedspeedshop »

I just finished rebuilding my 1975 C6. I picked up a Lokar shift kit and need to install some of the Lokar bracketry prior to installing the C6. The instructions first say to place the C6 into park, but I don't know how to recognize I've placed it into park, or any of the gears for that matter. If someone could give me a crash course on the lever/gear position with the C6 out of the truck?

When you put your truck in park you pull up on the handle which rotates your shift lever up which pulls up on the rod which pulls up on the transmission lever. Pull your transmission lever all the way up. That should be park. You should not be able to turn your yoke by hand in park. Then as you push down you should be able to count off your gears. P, R, N (you should be able to turn the yoke by hand in Neutral), D, 2, L.
