350 tranny issue

[Draenor]

Remove ur linkage and try shifting it with your hand if there is a lot 1/2 inch of play that is most likly the problem?

And as a side note ive have never heard of a th350 tranny shifting on its own from 1st to 2nd if you manualy have the shifter in 1st? The th400 will.

And do you have your kickdown cable hooked up? Or does it even have a kickdown cable? Even if you're not using the kickdown its a good idea to at least have it hooked up in the tranny or it will do all kinds of funny stuff.

This.......

It will be sunday before i can get my hands back on it-when you say half inch play-is that back and forth or in an out?-Yes kick down is hooked up and kicks down right.

Back and forth. It will move a little but should not move much at all. And it will move a little in and out but should not move much at all. If it does move a lot then the nut on the inside is your problem.

I think it's a linkage issue also. If you have plans to go floor shifter let me know. I have one of these and will let it go for $120.00 shipped.

Was installed in my 67 Camaro but I needed another shifter to be legal at the drag strip. Car was never ran with it. Cable is still in the sealed bag.
