Solid Shifter Pin Bushing Set, 72-81 240Z-260Z-280Z-280ZX Non-Turbo w/ Manual Trans.

Includes:

• (2) Solid Shifter Pin Bushing

Description:
Original plastic Shifter Pin Bushings are known for wearing out and causing sloppy shifter movement. Similar to solid bushings that Nissan Competition discontinued a long time ago, this solid Shifter Pin bushing set is the answer. They are manufactured in the USA from self-lubricating 932 Bearing Bronze. Once installed, the firm feel of your shifter will pleasantly surprise you. While Self-Lubricating Bronze can be used without grease, it is even more amazing with good quality grease . With a high end bearing grease, these bushings will most likely far outlast your Z! We strongly recommend replacing the transmission shift boot if yours shows any sign of tearing or other damage. The pin should also be replaced to help ensure the longest bushing life possible*. Sold in pairs; one pair needed per car. See Related Items for both of these and our kit that includes both.

*Shifter Pins:
The only possibility for any significant wear would be if your shifter pin is worn or damaged in any way. We strongly recommend purchasing a new Shifter Pin to go with these bushings, which should make it the last time they will ever need to be replaced. See Related Items for a new Shifter Pin.

Original Transmission Lever Type:
These bushings will only fit in 72-81 "B-Style" transmission shift levers. B-Style transmissions have a horizontal pin that holds the lever in place and uses a pair of cylindrical nylon bushings (which this kit replaces). If your transmission uses vertically mounted rubber bushings (70-71 A-Style), or if your shift lever has rectangular bushing holes with springs (factory 82-83 N/T B-Style), this kit will not work. Likewise, if the transmission and lever in your 70-71 model matches the 72-81 B-Style description, then this bushing kit will work. Please give us a call at (714)639-2620 if you aren't sure which transmission type you have prior to ordering.

Note:
If you painted or powdercoated your shift lever, that coating may need to be removed from the pin area, as these bushings are a very precise fit. Ensure that your lever is completely free of any rust or debris prior to installation. Please call if you have any questions.
