Vague or slopping shifter feel even after installing a short shifter or new OE shifter linkage bushings?  Looking for a more precise shifter feel in your classic BMW?  Consider replacing your old, worn rubber rear shifter bushing with new Turner poly to get the best shifting experience possible!  The Turner engineering team wasn’t satisfied with the other options on the market, so we set out to design the best solution for ease of installation and performance.

The competition requires the installer to cut or burn the rubber bushing out of the stock housing to be able to install their poly bushing, requiring reuse of an old worn out housing, or buying a new costly bushing assembly.  We decided this was cumbersome and unnecessary, so we designed a complete upgrade replacement bracket with a 70A polyurethane bushing preinstalled for a quick bolt-in installation.  Our bracket is precision formed with a CNC machined and TIG welded bushing cup to perfectly match the OEM bracket, and is made from 304 stainless steel for exceptional corrosion resistance.  The result is a complete design solution that creates much crisper shifting with nearly zero added NVH for a more engaging and enjoyable driving experience.

Note: Some shifter arms have a mushroom-shaped end. Use extra care installing our bushing on these arms. Filing this mushroom down makes installation easier, however simply applying sufficient pressure to the back side of the bushing during installation will allow this bushing to install smoothly.

This is the last bushing you will ever want or need for your E28, E30, or E34!

Product Features:

  • Pre-installed bushing, NO cutting or burning for installation
  • Corrosion resistant 304 stainless steel mounting bracket
  • 70A durometer poly bushing for reduced NVH
  • Ready to install out of the box
  • Replaces Genuine BMW part number 25111220707
  • Made in America

We have always loved BMWs, but one of their shortcomings has always been shifter throw and feel. Even driving your BMW home from the dealership, you might realize that the shifter throw leaves something to be desired when you find your right hand in your backseat when shifting into fourth gear. Things only go downhill from here, as these cars increase in age and mileage shifts feel less and less precise. Here at Turner, we CAD design everything in house and source the best materials to give you a truly amazing product and enhance the driving experience in your ultimate driving machine. After extensive testing and development, we are proud to present you with our Turner Motorsport short shifter. We wanted to develop something that could fit any BMW owner’s preferences - our engineering team decided this could be designed a height and throw adjustable short shifter that also features a “Quick Change” rally lever extension that allows you to easily swap back and forth between OE height shifter and the longer, rally lever you see in the product photos. Why the rally lever extension? Having the added height allows you to keep both hands closer to the wheel through shifts - this is especially helpful on the track, but we like it in our daily drivers too.

As BMWs age, and from spirited use, the shift linkage in the manual transmission will become worn. This selector rod joint is one of the main pieces in the shift linkage but is often overlooked when installing a new shifter or rebuilding the original linkage. This knuckle is the piece that connects the linkage to the internals of the transmission, therefore, it's vital in completing smooth and crisp shifts. Our selector rod kit includes the pieces to replace the transmission selector rod joint and restore its action to a new feel.

In addition to helping restore shifting feel, this piece is required in many short shift kits and selector rod upgrades. The original joint on your car may be the wrong size or shape to work with the new selector rod.

This kit includes part numbers 25117503525 - selector rod joint, 23411466134 shift linkage pin, 4 x 25111220439 washer .
