There is a plastic bushing in the stock shifter that wears and when it does the shifter vibrates/resonates at certain rpm in the low gears.

I got one from a mechanic buddy on another forum a couple of years ago & it's worn again & starting to resonate.

Anyone know where I can get one? I am fine with stock shifter so would just like to replace it again & be good for another couple of years.

Looks like a top hat.

Or got a low miles stock shifter you are not using?

(I know the c6 one bolts in.)

Thanks!

I think I have one or two sitting in a box somewhere. If you're not in a big hurry I'll send them to you. Pm me the address you want them shipped to.

froggy47

That would be super, I'll pm & THANKS!

REVHARD

If he cant locate his...I just found mine in my toolbox...gladly ship it to you also

froggy47

I will pm my address, I haven't got any yet so maybe geerookie got side tracked with something, no biggie & thanks to both of you guys.

Wow! Where do you guys buy those?? I have been buying the whole shifter box to get new bushings in mine!

froggy47

I don't think they are available separately, you get them off used shifters when guys replace the whole shifter with Hurst/B&M/etc.

froggy is this inside the shifter box? I located the shifter box in my toolbox the other day but I can't seem to locate the actual shifter...the piece you need is on the end of the shifter?

I've been destroying O.T the past few week so give me some time to dig around I'm sure I have it somewhere.

Clean it, fill it 1/4 (judge it based on the size of hole vs size of shift ball) full with some rubber poly (sold in a tube), stick the shifter into it, wait 24h for it to cure, and have at 'er!

froggy47

Can you give me a brand name for the rubber poly? Is it a glue? Or is it like that black Permatex gasket material? Thanks.

Apocolipse

Here you go sir.

The only issue I may see is if the transmission fluid will break it down over time... I have not tried it. Was a thought I had while reading over the thread... sometimes my thoughts are good, other times...well...yeah.

froggy47

Huh, well I like using stuff for purposes other than intended, will give it a try if I can find some.

Apocolipse

Theoretically, it shouldn't break down because it is urethane...

froggy47

Yeah, this is a stick, so just grease.

Apocolipse

Yup, that is true... I forgot that it was not directly vented to the transmission. Carry on lol

(too many styles of transmissions in my head)
