FFG Drive Stop Bracket — 6R80

Your transmission should do what you tell it to do. Here is the failure: the shift lever creeps out of position; the 6R80 drops into manual shift mode and there is no way back. It happens in a driveway during a build and it happens at a light three states from home. Either way the drive is over until you get under the truck. The Drive Stop Bracket locks the lever where you put it. That is the whole job and it is worth doing before the first shakedown run. Ships with the spacers you need for a 6R80. Built by truck builders who got tired of the phone calls.

  • Holds the gear you selected - the lever cannot walk out of position and drop the trans into manual shift mode.
  • Spacers in the box - the 6R80 version ships with them; you are not hunting hardware mid-install.
  • Fixes a no-recovery failure - once a 6R80 goes to manual shift mode from a lever that moved; there is no shifting back.
  • Transmission-specific - made for the 6R80 rather than bent to fit whatever is under the truck.
  • Twenty dollar problem - cheap enough to install before the shakedown drive instead of after it.

Install Level: Easy

For the 6R80 only. The 6R80 and 10R80 brackets are not interchangeable; the 10R80 version does not include spacers.

Your transmission should do what you tell it to do. The FFG Drive Stop Bracket for the 6R80 makes sure it stays that way.

When you're running a 6R80 transmission, the last thing you want is for your shift lever to slip out of your desired gear and lock you into a manual shift mode with no way out. It's an frustrating problem that can stop a build — or a drive — dead in its tracks. This bracket is the fix.

What It Does

The FFG Drive Stop Bracket is designed to keep your transmission shift lever locked in its desired gear. Without it, the lever can move out of position and force your transmission into a manual shift mode — with no way to shift back. This bracket prevents that from happening, keeping your drivetrain doing exactly what you want it to do.

What's Included:

  • FFG Drive Stop Bracket (6R80)
  • Required spacers

Fitment Note: The 6R80 and 10R80 Drive Stop Brackets are not interchangeable. Make sure you're ordering the correct bracket for your transmission. The 6R80 version includes spacers — the 10R80 version does not.
