Winters Torqueflite 904, 999, 727 & AMC Reverse Lockout Conversion Kit
1490-03
The Winters Performance Standard to Lockout Conversion Shifter Kit for Torqueflite 904, 999, 727, & American Motors allows you to upgrade an existing non-lockout Winters shifter to a reverse lockout configuration, adding an important layer of safety and race compliance to your vehicle.
This conversion kit installs directly into compatible Winters shifters and adds a reverse lockout mechanism designed to prevent accidental engagement of reverse—an essential requirement for many racing organizations and a smart upgrade for high-performance street, off-road, and competition vehicles.
Whether you're building a Mopar-powered drag car, Jeep trail rig, rock crawler, race vehicle, mud truck, or classic American Motors project, a reverse lockout shifter adds an important layer of safety while maintaining the positive gate-to-gate shifting feel Winters shifters are known for.
