Weld-on Front Plate for shifter w/cable tab

The weld-on front plate for shifter with cable tab is a precision bracket engineered for serious racers and hot rodders building custom manual transmission setups. This component serves as the mounting foundation for MPD Racing's positive camlock shifter systems, securing the shifter assembly to your vehicle's floor pan or custom mounting surface. Whether you're constructing a dedicated track car, restoring a classic muscle car with modern driveline components, or upgrading a street machine with a competitive-grade shifter package, this bracket provides the structural backbone your installation demands.

Manufactured from steel in natural finish, the weld-on front plate delivers durability and corrosion resistance suitable for engine bay environments. The cable tab feature accommodates shifter cable routing and retention, keeping hydraulic or mechanical linkage organized and protected from heat and moving parts. At just 0.2 lbs, this lightweight assembly won't add unnecessary mass to your build, while its compact footprint (2.8 x 1.35 x 4.25 inches) fits tight engine compartments and custom chassis layouts. The weld-on design eliminates bolted connections in a high-vibration zone, ensuring permanent structural integrity under the aggressive shifts demanded by racing and performance driving.

This bracket is essential for builders installing MPD Racing camlock shifter kits, particularly in tube-chassis race cars, drag vehicles, and modified street applications where factory mounting points don't exist or must be relocated. Installation requires welding to your chassis or floor pan—a task best suited for fabricators and experienced mechanics with access to proper equipment. The natural steel finish accepts paint, powder coating, or additional corrosion treatment to match your engine bay aesthetic and protection requirements. Verify your specific shifter model compatibility before purchasing.
