Black Kickdown Kit GM TH400

The LOKAR Black Kickdown Kit for GM TH400 transmissions is a premium adjustable-length kickdown cable assembly designed for engine swap and transmission retrofit applications. This hi-tech kickdown cable kit features braided stainless steel housing with stainless steel fittings, delivering reliable throttle-to-transmission response tuning essential for optimizing shift points during acceleration and load transitions.

The adjustable length design accommodates varied engine bay configurations, allowing precise cable routing without kinks or binding that would compromise shift response. Braided stainless housing resists corrosion and abrasion, critical factors in high-performance and vintage vehicle restorations where engine compartment temperatures and underhood vibration present constant wear challenges. The stainless steel fittings resist rust and ensure consistent throttle linkage geometry over time, maintaining accurate kickdown calibration through thousands of miles of driving.

This kit is intended for builders and technicians installing or upgrading TH400 three-speed automatic transmissions in custom vehicles, restorations, and performance builds. Proper kickdown cable setup directly influences transmission behavior during hard acceleration—a misadjusted cable results in late or early downshifts that compromise drivability and fuel efficiency. The TH400, known for strength and durability across decades of automotive use, requires precise cable calibration to unlock its full potential in modern engine combinations.

LOKAR specializes in stainless steel transmission and throttle linkage components for custom and restoration projects, and this kickdown assembly reflects the brand's focus on corrosion resistance and adjustability. The black finish on the housing provides visual continuity with modern engine bay aesthetics while the stainless fittings deliver long-term reliability in challenging underhood environments.
