This steel plate mounts to the tilt support housing and helps the shift selector determine which gear your lever is in..."Park-Reverse-Neutral-Drive-2-1". GM used multiple detent plates (shift gates) over the years on various models. We have an assortment of these available with different stamped numbers for applications utilizing different transmissions.
Since we never see the vehicle or the transmission associated with the columns we receive, we have no way of knowing which plate goes with which transmission. From our experience, the differences seem to be in the distances 'beyond' the Drive position. Some accommodate 1 position (Powerglide Trans), while others may accomodate 2-3 additional "drive" selections (TH350 & 400). Each plate is stamped with a different number.
