Any information out there on the proper wiring for the under dash solenoid connected to the switch? Also, the proper dash location for a 1972 Dodge Charger Rallye.

Should be in the factory service manual. The bullet connector plugs into one of the accessory feeds.

Connects to the yellow three-way accessory tap near the radio. Switch mounts to the lower left side of the dash frame, any one of the three positions located there.

I figured that was where it went for the light in the bracket, but how about the solenoid wiring.

The wiring for the light goes to an orange 3 plug connector and works with the dash lights. The solenoid goes to the yellow connector.

I need your expertise on console shifter components. I'm converting my car from a column shift to a console. What are all the required components. I see you changed yours from an automatic to a 4 speed.

To start, you will need a Slap-Stick shifter and related linkages, the mounting brackets from a donor car/floor section and rear console mounting bracket. Doing the conversion correctly also involves replacing the lower steering column head castings and removing the shift tube from the column. These castings are being reproduced now.

Where did you get that diagram? All of the parts are available through Classic Industries. I just need to know what parts to purchase. That diagram is spot-on.

I downloaded the Dodge Service manual, I might have overlooked it.

The manual I downloaded does not have a transmission section. I got the link off the forum.

I found all components except the upper shift linkage rod.

I got the shift mechanism and the upper rod off e-bay. I need to see more pics of your setup. Thanks for your help.

What does the lower bracket attach to on the transmission? Is there another bracket that needs to be purchased?

The lower bracket should have two studs with nuts, there are corresponding ears cast into the bottom of transmission tail housing.

Got it, thanks. My tranny is still sitting on the pallet. You are a good resource.
