The Art Carr - Winters SideWinder Lockout Shifter for Ford C-6 is Designed specifically for the Ford C-6 automatic transmission, this lockout configuration features a mechanical reverse lockout system that makes it physically impossible to accidentally shift into reverse from any forward gear.

The shifter comes fully assembled in a standard Winters plastic console and typically includes a 5-foot (3 travel) double-clip push-pull cable and mounting hardware. Shifters are also available without a cable if a custom length is required.

The lockout version includes a neutral safety switch, ensuring the vehicle can only be started when the shifter is in Park adding essential protection for competition and street/strip builds.

Tech Insight

The Ford C-6 is a heavy-duty transmission widely used in high-horsepower and off-road builds. Proper cable geometry and detent alignment are critical to ensure full gear engagement under load. The Winters Sidewinder lockout design delivers precise manual control while eliminating the risk of accidental reverse engagement especially important in high-vibration racing environments.
