[Tigers] Tigers Reverse Switch

[David or Gary Franchi]

Tim, The Tiger reverse switch was Ford part number C2AZ-15520-E (Motorcraft #SW-407) it is quite a bit different than David Kee's C5ZZ-15520-A (Motorcraft #SW-770) Mustang switch. The Tiger switch bolts onto the shift lever support assembly through a 1/2" hole (the big black arrow in the photo link of the Ford parts book below is pointing at the mounting hole). The C5ZZ Mustang switch mounts 90? to the C2AZ Tiger switch. I don't know if the Mustang C5ZZ switch can be mounted on the Tiger shift lever support assembly. You may be able to get it to work, but it might be easier to find a switch similar to the Tigers "straight through the bracket" switch. If you watch eBay these Ford Galaxie/Tiger switches are on auction, now and then, they usually sell for over $50.00. You could probably find a push button switch at a large electrical store which could be made to mount through the Tigers bracket.
