JBR Shift Bushings ariving today, Los Angeles are helpers?
 
I'd rather do the bushings install with someone who's done this before. Anyone not busy?
P.M. me. Thanks!

Yeah, doesn't seem to bad. But I don't have needle nose pliers. And I just got done reading the horror stories of grease on the seats, pieces falling into unreachable places, needing to do weird insertions to hold bushings in place till you can tighten them down. If nobody responds, I'll find a way on my own.
Williamstown! I grew up in Marlton, be home for the Phils home opener in a few weeks. And the Flyers better fucking win tonight!

That would be fair, but I've never done suspension work.

Damn, Sweet bro! Flyers got us, no worries.

I didn't need needle nose pliers at all...just place the bottom bushings down...and slide ur hands around the sides of the shifter so they stay in place while the top washer sits in it's little seat on top...I'm telling you...Just take ur time and you wont drop anything..it's super easy.

Thanks brother! Also, the fact that the OEM pin or whatever doesn't fully go into the SSP isn't weird? What keeps it in place since it just floats on there?

It's pretty simple. Kind of awkward. Just take your time. You've got to start somewhere. Best way to learn is to do it Imo.

It just rests on the top...I don't know why it's like that...it's not really a pin...it just kinda cups it...dont worry I drive mine really hard sometimes...it wont come off.
