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.
