Any other G-body with floor shift and 4 speed auto. (IIRC, there are 2 cables, one for 3 speed auto and one for 4 speed auto)

Column shift g bodies have a mechanical linkage.

That cable is only used on Regal and Cutlass with the 200-4R trans. Chevy and GP are different. And THM200/350 are different. Stupid question? Why go used when you can still buy a new one from a vendor or a GM dealer. It could be kind of hard finding that exact cable in the boneyard.

Then there are 3 different part numbers?

3 speed (TH350C, TH200M)
4 speed (TH200-4R) B, O
4 speed (TH200-4R) C, P

got the GM numbers for them?

Didn't think gm still had them, I'll call and check it out.

damn.. now I gotta go look thru all of my old used cables... and figger out the differences...

 

[turbofish38]

From what I can tell the big difference is where the cable goes through the hole in the shifter and trans brackets. The area where those U-shaped clips hold it on. The B-O is bigger IIRC.
