66 shifter hump

I have a 66 that had a 4 speed. I have installed a big block with a th400 trans. I would like to have a lower hump what can I do. Please post pictures if you have them.
Thanks

Re: 66 shifter hump

If you have a donor truck w/a small hump they can be swapped but its not easy. Welder is required. I did it several years ago on my burb-you need the front piece up on the firewall also.

in one pic you can see I had sheetmetal screws holding it in place, then I spot welded it all in place-once done it looks like it came that way-much more footroom also. My burb was 4 speed OEM, its 700r4 now.

Re: 66 shifter hump

Some of the low hump covers were bolted in just like the large hump covers.

Re: 66 shifter hump

As far as I know they were available in all years from '60-'66. I believe they were in the trucks with the 3 OTT?

I also found a low hump in a big truck with the allison(?) large 5 speed trans... did have the shifter hole, but thats an easy fix.. nice thing about that one, was the entire thing was bolt in , hump, and front panel..
seems like all the 60-63 1/2 ton 3 OT trucks were bolt in...
most of the 456 lows I have seen are welded, but I have seen pics of a 456 bolt in low....
