can someone do a Diy short shifter with pics please i searched but couldn't find one i have my eyes on a b&m short shifter new in box for 50 bucks but don't know what changing mine would entail

its actually not that hard.


undo that nut where the arrow is pointed and undo the 2 12(?)mm nuts behind it take it out and once that is done there is a 10mm holding the shifter in place. than install is the reverse

yeah that looks easy. now quick question, to replace your shifter bushings it would be between where the bolt goes through?

which ones? the long one? the long bushing would go behind the shifter where the 2 12mm bolts are

the round one i believe it replaces the one on the trans side, where the stabilizer bar just bolts to the trans. heres a link with pics that might help

awesome link. deff gunna use that.

but what bushing would cause sloppy shifting?
like it moves back and forth when in gear like it would move in neutral?

switching out the stock shifter for a short one isn't all that hard but what took me awhile on was the two bolts at the top..called up a friend and he told me to get a 10mm wrench and hold down the top of the bolts and use the socket to undo the bottom part..if that makes any sense.

that is the main shifter bushing or the shifter seat. its a round cylinder bushing that accepts the ball of the shifter.

below is a break down of the entire shifter assembly provided by honda. # 8 is the actual shifter bushing, and i recommend replacing it when you instal a new shifter.

Awesome! thanks.
