Corvette Shifter Reverse Lockout Pin.: 1964-1981

Restore and protect your classic Corvette's shifting action with the Corvette Shifter Reverse Lockout Pin (19641981). Crafted to integrate with the original shifter assembly, this pin is a practical, periodcorrect replacement that preserves the authentic driving experience of your vintage Vette.

Why this matters

• Prevents accidental reverse engagement: The lockout pin works with the shifter detent to keep reverse gear out of play unless intentionally selected, reducing the risk of gear misshifts and gearbox strain during spirited driving.
• Preserves authentic feel: By matching the original lockout geometry, it maintains the classic shift sensation you expect from midcentury American performance cars.
• Simple maintenance for restorations: If you're restoring or maintaining a Corvette from 1964–1981, replacing a worn or missing lockout pin helps you keep the shifter operating as designed.
• Lowfriction operation: The pin is designed to ride smoothly within the shifter bore, supporting consistent detent action across years of use.

Compatibility and use

• Fits Corvette manual shifters used in 1964 through 1981 models.
• Ideal for restoration projects, weekend drivers, and enthusiasts who value precise, reliable gear selection with their classic Corvette.
• Not compatible with later generations or nonstandard shifters without a reverse lockout mechanism.

Installation tips

• Inspect the surrounding shifter housing for wear; replacing the lockout pin is a straightforward maintenance task that can help prevent misalignment and rough shifting.
• Use basic hand tools to seat the pin properly, ensuring the lockout mechanism engages cleanly with the detent.
