    I've got a '69 3-speed (T86) and the backup light switch is kaput. the wire seems to go to the top of the transmission, where's the switch supposed to be? and can i replace the switch without dropping the transmission?

    On the transmission shift top.

    Remove the floor plates to replace.

    All I have to do is remove the damn boot?

    Wow, I love my Jeep.

    More than the boot. The trans cover, not the larger floor panels. Easy - take the boot off and look, and you'll see it.
