B&M 75498 BRACKET & LEVER KIT FOR 4L60E/4L80E - Manual

Note: This kit is used for the GM 4L60E, 4L65E, 4L80E, and 4L85E equipped with a PRNDL switch only. If you
do not have a PRNDL switch in your GM transmission you will need to use optional accessory kit #35498.
STEP 1. Raise and safely support the vehicle at least 1-2 feet off the ground. Remove the stock selector lever nut and
the selector lever. Discard the stock lever and the stock shifter linkage. Install the B&M selector lever in position using
the stock selector lever nut (See Figure #1).Torque the nut to 23 lb-ft. The lever should move smoothly from front to rear
with a positive stop in each gear position.
STEP 2. Remove the two transmission oil pan bolts from the middle of the left side of the oil pan. Install the cable bracket
in position (See Figure #1 and Figure #3). The bracket must be installed with the two spacers between the pan and
the bracket. (If your transmission is equipped with a cast aluminum oil pan, these spacers should be omitted. Install the
two 5/16-18 x 1.00" bolts (Metric transmissions use the two 8mm x 25mm bolts) supplied and tighten 12-13 lb-ft. Do not
overtighten as this can damage the pan gasket.
STEP 3. Route the shifter cable according to Figure #2. Avoid kinks and sharp bends and route the cable away from hot
engine or exhaust parts. Remove the two rubber boots, one large nut, and a large lockwasher from the threaded end of
the shifter cable. Slide the end of the cable into the cable bracket. Install the large nut and lockwasher loosely over the
end of cable. Install the two rubber boots onto the end of the cable. Install the swivel on the threaded end of the cable and
position it in the center of the threaded portion.
STEP 4. Move the transmission selector lever by hand to the full rear position (LOW). Place the shifter lever to the LOW
