Trans Kickdown Cable Brk

The Trans Kickdown Cable Brk from TRANS-DAPT is a precision-engineered intake manifold mounted kickdown bracket designed for classic and high-performance automatic transmission builds. Built for TH350 and TH400 transmissions, this component bridges the gap between your engine's throttle input and your transmission's downshift logic, ensuring crisp, predictable kickdowns during acceleration and highway passing. Whether you're restoring a vintage muscle car or tuning a street machine, this bracket is essential for transmissions that rely on mechanical kickdown actuation rather than electronic signals.

Manufactured from durable steel and finished in polished chrome, the Trans Kickdown Cable Brk offers both functional reliability and show-quality aesthetics in an engine bay. The bracket mounts directly to your intake manifold, providing a solid pivot point for the kickdown cable linkage that communicates throttle position to the transmission's downshift valve. Chrome plating protects against corrosion while maintaining the classic appearance favored by enthusiasts building period-correct or custom muscle cars. At just 0.32 lbs and compact dimensions, installation is straightforward and adds negligible weight while eliminating the slop and unpredictability of improper cable routing.

This kickdown bracket is ideal for anyone performing a TH350 or TH400 swap, rebuilding a transmission, or upgrading throttle response in a classic drivetrain. Proper kickdown calibration allows the transmission to downshift at the right engine speed, delivering the gear ratio needed for acceleration while preventing unnecessary hunting between gears on the highway. Installation requires basic mechanical knowledge and standard hand tools; mount the bracket to an available boss on your intake manifold, route the cable cleanly, and adjust the cable tension per your transmission manufacturer's specifications for optimal feel and performance.
