The Winters Performance Allison Sidewinder Shifter Linkage Kit (P/N 1195) is designed to adapt Allison automatic transmissions to standard Winters Sidewinder shifters, allowing reliable mechanical shifting in street, off-road, and race applications.

This kit provides the critical linkage components required to connect a Sidewinder shifter to Allison 1000, 2000, and 2400 series transmissions, making it a popular solution for diesel swaps, medium-duty truck builds, and off-road conversions. All components are engineered for durability, precise engagement, and long term reliability.

Includes:

• Linkage Arm (P/N 4011): Attaches directly to the transmission shift shaft
• Cable Bracket (P/N 4977): Mounts to the rear transmission cover to secure the shifter cable
• Hardware Bag (P/N 6062): Ball joints, nuts, lock washers, and clamps for final installation

Tech Insight

Allison transmissions are widely used in diesel conversions and heavy-duty builds, but require proper linkage geometry for safe and consistent shifting. The Winters 1195 linkage kit ensures correct cable alignment and positive shift engagement when paired with a Sidewinder shifter. This purely mechanical setup eliminates reliance on electronics, making it ideal for off-road rigs and race vehicles where simplicity and reliability are critical.
