Winters Ford C6 Shift Linkage Kit 3095
3095
The Winters Ford C6 Shift Linkage Kit 3095 connects a Winters cable-operated shifter to the shift arm on a Ford C6 automatic transmission. It provides the correct linkage components and cable bracket to make sure movement at the shifter properly matches the gear positions at the transmission.
Using the correct transmission-specific linkage is important because the shifter needs to move the C6 through its full range without running out of cable travel or stopping between gear positions. This kit is designed specifically around the Ford C6, taking the guesswork out of connecting a compatible Winters shifter to the transmission.
Use Kit 3095 when installing a compatible Winters shifter on a Ford C6 or when replacing linkage components that have become worn, damaged, or lost.
Includes:
- Ford C6 Linkage Components
- Cable Mounting Bracket
- Required Mounting Hardware

Fitment Notes:
- This is a transmission-specific linkage kit for the Ford C6.
- Do not select a linkage kit based only on the Winters shifter model; the linkage must also match the transmission.
- The linkage components and cable bracket connect the shifter cable to the C6 transmission shift mechanism.
- Verify that your transmission is a Ford C6 before ordering.
- Final cable adjustment should be performed after the shifter, cable bracket, and linkage components are installed.
FAQ
Why does the Ford C6 need its own Winters linkage kit?
The Winters shifter operates through a cable, but the parts connecting that cable to the transmission still need to match the C6. Kit 3095 provides the transmission-specific linkage and mounting components needed to connect the Winters shifter cable to a Ford C6 and move it through its gear positions.
Why is the cable bracket important?
The cable bracket holds the shifter cable in the correct position relative to the transmission linkage. Proper positioning gives the cable the travel it needs to move the C6 completely into each gear rather than stopping short or putting unnecessary load on the cable.
Is Kit 3095 a complete Winters SideWinder shifter?
No. Kit 3095 is the Ford C6 transmission linkage kit. It contains the transmission-side components needed to connect a compatible Winters cable-operated shifter to the C6. The shifter and shifter cable are separate unless included as part of another package.
Can I use a Winters linkage kit from another transmission on my C6?
No. The linkage kit should match the transmission being used. A Ford C6 does not use the same transmission-side linkage arrangement as an A4LD, TH400, or other automatic transmission, even when they are operated by a similar Winters cable shifter.
How should the shifter be adjusted after installing the linkage kit?
Once the linkage and cable are installed, the shifter and transmission should be placed in the same gear position before making the final cable adjustment. After adjustment, manually move the shifter through its complete range and verify that the C6 fully reaches each intended gear position before operating the vehicle.
