video was hella helpful thank you my guy made it easy for me. i didnt have to replace the shift lever either i just popped the bushing on and everything fit nice and tight
You said you used a 3/8 drill bit for the bushing but the drill bit doesn’t look as thick as a 3/8. Can you confirm which one you used?
You were instrumental in helping me troubleshoot the fact that the bushing did not just fit nicely into the transmission link hole like the auto parts guy insisted. I mimicked you by drilling through the hole till the bushing would fit snugly… Thanks for the tips. Also auto parts guy swore my metal piece there with the male part was functional, but clearly it was not. Bushing fit right on the new metal piece perfectly so it was a no brainer. Word of advice: Anyone taking off the metal piece by loosening the nut should spray lots of penetrating oil on the nut and let it sit a little before loosening as I heard sometimes the bolt it's on snaps…then you have an internal transmission problem to deal with. Edit: Bushing was $18.00…pretty high but better than a service station…also the metal piece was like $14.00 . I bought them at federated auto here in upstate NY. Cheaper online though…of course.
Thanks FerKurl, you saved me $250.00 in diagnostics.
$33 for the bushing in canada lol
Excuse me ,how/where can I find the Amazon part number?
"This worked perfectly! Just a reminder—the bushing isn’t for the 1999–2006 models; it’s for the 2007, since they don’t make one for the 1999–2006."
Thanks!
Hey pal good video can you tell me what size nut holds the lever to the transmission thank you
