Since my mechanic here in town hasn't got back with me on the install of the bronze shifter bushing and the ball and cup bushing that are a bit sloppy. Thinking of trying it myself.
I would presume the shifter has to come apart somewhere in order to get them in place? How hard of a job is it, just in case he doesn't get back with me............ |

I had the mechanic put the bronze shifter bushing and ball and cup bushing in, but long story short, 2nd get goes in but barely and can't even get it into 5th gear so I guess the next step is to take it back on Friday and make the adjustment under the shifter?? Could possibly be some flex in the modified Subie shift rod, but went into 5th just fine before changing the old bushings.
Any advice? I was told to make sure to mark the coupler and shift rod before making any adjustments so I know where it was. I thought it was going to be a plug and play deal, but apparently not........Will the rod have to go forward, if it is not wanting to pull into 5th? |
