Great feel with a new look! Over ten years ago, we launched our upgraded shifter cable bushings that help give drivers a more direct link between the shifter and gear selector. We crushed the competition by including a steel bearing in the larger bushing, preventing the gear selector from binding while it moved.
We raise the bar again with our new Competition shifter cable bushings. This new generation of bushings offers many of the same benefits as the original and more. The most obvious change is to the material and bushing design. Over the last few years, we have been testing new lightweight materials that are just as durable but corrosion-resistant and easier to install.Modern materials for modern cars!Our Competition bushings are injection molded black Delrin, extremely durable (high cyclic fatigue resistance) from both impacts and chemicals. Safe to operate in environments up to 250*F, these bushings are rated to withstand greater forces than the cables. The center bushing is machined from 6061 aluminum and finished in a protective anodized finish.
Another benefit to our new bushings is their corrosion resistance, meaning they will not rust. Our bushings will feel great for years when installed with the supplied high-temperature grease. Not only are these bushings stronger than the last version, but they’re also easier to install. No more spiral clips, and since the bushing self-locks into the housing, it requires no installation tools.
In the end, these bushings offer an extremely smooth operation over the factory rubber parts. They are easy to install and eliminate all unwanted slack felt through the shifter.
