Hello everyone 

I just purchased a 1950 Plymouth business coupe and someone installed a r10g overdrive unit ,unfortunately they neglected to install a lockout cable and kick down switch 

Can someone post pictures on how it's installed on overdrive unit 

I would like to see. If I'm missing some brackets or other mounting hardware. 

Thanks for the help

There is an r 10 owner user manual in the downloads section of this site.  Go to the main page its under one of th pull down tabs. There is also a schematic for wiring a manual by pass of the link down switch. So you can operate before you figure out the factory setup.

I do have the overdrive manual,but it doesn't show how the cable is attached to the overdrive unit and I believe that I'm probably missing some mounting brackets and some pin to attach to the arm 

That's why  I would like to see pictures of someone with the same overdrive mounted on there car so I could get idea a make mounting bracket

The cable attaches to a bracket that shares screws with the solenoid. I thought I had a pic but I looked through 2 of my threads on OD and I'm good at taking pics of the other side of the trans.

Sorry for the delay.  If no one has gotten back to you, I took pictures of mine.  It's an R10.

 

The first picture is the bracket that bolts under the solenoid.  Sorry for the upside down picture.  The second shows the lever locked in, the third shows it locked out.

 

I hope this helps.
