Subaru Sambar Solid Shift Bushing Set Front & Rear KS4/KS3/KV4/KV3/TT1/TT2/TV1/TV2

After the 25+ years our trucks and vans take to get to us in the US, the rubber bushings are likely already deteriorating. I created a custom option to replace your rear shift linkage bushings for more solid and precise shifts. The stock shift bushings are soft rubber which can create slop in the shifter, these solid shift bushings will help reduce that slop.

I started with the self-lubricating sintered bronze bushings to slide smoothly over the rear shift linkage shaft. Then I created ASA plastic sleeves to press these bushings into which hold two nitrile rubber O-rings for some compliance.

Kit includes:

• Rear upper and lower shift bushing housings.
• 2X Sintered bronze bushings
• 4X Nitrile rubber O-rings
• Driver and passenger side TPU (Flexible Plastic) front shifter bushings.

Important Notes:

• Please ensure you order the correct bushings for your vehicle. Early models used a smaller lower bushing compared to the upper one, while later models use the same size for both top and bottom.
  The exact changeover date is unclear, so if your truck or van is a 1993, please check the size of the lower shift bushing on your vehicle before placing your order.
• Some 90-93 Sambars have a hiem joint style front right shift linkage which is not compatible with my front right shift bushings. The other 3 bushings in the set will fit to help tighten up the shifting.
• The rear shift bushings should spin freely on the rod while maintaining a very tight fit. If they need to be forced on, the rod should first be cleaned with emery cloth or sandpaper.
• I recommend installing with PTFE grease, Super Lube is my preferred lubrication.

The rear shift bushings will fit the KS4, KS3, KV4, KV3, TT1, TT2, TV1, TV2 Subaru Sambars.
