I don't care if it is NOS or not. I tried NAPA and they didn't have anything. Looking at Autozone's website was a bust too.

So '68 727s has a single prong switch?

Was looking at a '68 yesterday and it had a 3 prong switch on the trans. It had a three prong connector on the car but had only one wire leading into it. The 3 prong connector looked like it was spliced in and did not originally come with the car.

What do the three prong switchs do that the 1 prong doesn't?

Starting in 69 or 70 the 3 prong switch also switched the backup lights.


Take care,

And what triggers the back up lights on the earlier Mopars?

On column shift cars there is a switch on the column, under the dash.

It started in 69 , what Ramrod saw was someone making the later part work with a harness probably cut from a car in the junkyard because they couldn't buy the 68 switch anymore.

I figured they still had them even though it's been 5 or 6 years since I bought one.. I guess I'll keep all the switches I currently have.

at least until after I sell the cars.

Unless its for a resto, just use the 3 pin version and use the center pin. I use a butt connector of the correct size for the pin (usually crimp it slightly to make it a snug fit). I've done this many, many times cuz its so hard to find the old originals.

The 3-prong switch was introduced in late year '68.....around May 15th.
