Default Re: sYc w/Dual Gate B/U lamps ???

Didn't the neutral safety switch and back-up lights (with automatics) always work off of the switch on the bottom of the column? If the back drive was hooked up correctly everything should still work huh??

If Hurst supplied the arm for the side of the trans, that may be true. If a GM shifter arm is used, the back drive will be operational. The shift cable hooks to a pin that bolts into the rectangular hole in the GM shift arm, part #3950176. Check the picture.

My car had the Hurst arm, looks like it was there a long time and car was off the road since late 70's. My guess is you were correct in the original plan but all the cars did not get done correctly. Any original Dual-Gate Chevelles out there to chime in ? Does you car have functional B/U lamps and a neutral safety switch ?
