These bushings ensure a firm and accurate connection between the shifter carrier arm and the vehicle chassis, resulting in smoother, more precise gear shifts.

Key Features:

1. Oval Design for Stability:

   • The oval shape of these bushings provides a secure fit, ensuring that the shifter carrier arm stays properly aligned. This helps reduce excess play and maintains the integrity of the shifter assembly over time.

2. Enhanced Shifting Accuracy:

   • By minimizing unwanted movement and flex in the shifter mechanism, these bushings provide a more direct and controlled shifting experience, improving the feel of each gear change.

3. Durable and Long-Lasting:

   • Constructed from high-quality, durable materials, these bushings are built to withstand the stresses of everyday driving and high-performance use. They offer long-lasting reliability, even under demanding conditions.

4. Improved Driving Experience:

   • Replacing worn-out or degraded bushings can significantly enhance the overall driving experience. With new oval bushings installed, drivers will enjoy tighter, more responsive gear shifts, leading to a more engaging and enjoyable driving dynamic.

5. Easy Installation:

   • These bushings are designed to fit seamlessly into the shifter assembly of various BMW models. While installation can be handled by DIY enthusiasts, professional installation is recommended for optimal alignment and performance.

6. Wide Compatibility:

   • Suitable for a range of BMW models, these bushings are a versatile and valuable upgrade or replacement for drivers looking to restore or improve their vehicle’s shifter performance.

Benefits of Upgrading or Replacing:

• Tighter Shifting Feel: New oval bushings restore precision to the shifter assembly, eliminating the slack that develops over time in worn bushings, providing a more connected driving experience.
• Reduced Vibrations and Noise: Fresh bushings help dampen vibrations and reduce noise from the shifter assembly, contributing to a smoother, quieter ride.
• Extended Shifter Life: By maintaining proper alignment and reducing stress on other components, replacing old bushings can help extend the life of the entire shifter assembly.

In summary, the BMW Shifter Carrier Arm Bushings - Oval are a crucial upgrade for drivers looking to improve the performance and feel of their shifter. With enhanced durability, improved shifting precision, and a better driving experience, these bushings are a valuable investment for any BMW enthusiast.

The ZF 320z S5D is a common swap choice among BMW enthusiasts due to its reliable and robust nature. Unfortunately, it does have a weakness. The detent pins and springs that live inside of the transmission are known to wear down over time, often causing the shift lever to lean towards the 5th gear position when in neutral.

This full-service kit consists of everything you need to replace the failing detents in your ZF transmission. The kit contains only Genuine ZF components, all of which are sure to provide you with smooth shifting and operation for years to come.

This kit includes the following items:

Complete your Getrag 420G six-speed manual swap with a comprehensive shifter solution engineered for precision and durability. This all-in-one kit features our double-adjustable short shifter, dual-shear selector rod, heavy-duty shifter arm, upgraded bushings, and all required installation hardware for crisp gear engagement, reduced shifter slop, and confidence-inspiring performance you'll feel with every shift!

TURNER MOTORSPORT DOUBLE ADJUSTABLE SHORT SHIFT KIT

BMWs have historically been plagued by very long throw shifters from the factory - luckily, we've developed the solution. Our short shifter system is height- and throw-adjustable, offering up to a 52% reduction in throw over stock. Double adjustability enables you to find the sweet spot that will make you excited to drive your car again. Installation of this kit is also of the easiest to tackle. Compared to the competition, a custom bearing cup allows for easy installation from inside the car (on applications that use the stock shifter arm).

Benefits:

Adjustable between a conservative short throw to ultra short throw Ultra crisp shifter feel - quicker, more precise shifts More engaging driving experience Adjustability:

Independently adjustable knob height 22mm adjustment range to fine-tune shifter throw and feel. Note: knob height also affects throw reduction to some degree Independently adjustable shifter throw Adjustable by raising and lowering the lower lever position relative to the pivot ball. Note: ball position also affects knob height by ~10mm range Combined total throw adjustment range ​32 to 52 % reduction in throw over stock E36 shifter. A throw adjustment can be done in the car without removing the shifter DSSR (109MM) - E36 420G

Like all OEM selector rods, the factory part uses single-shear attachment, allowing for deflection within the shifter linkage. The result? Vague, imprecise gear selections that detract from your overall driving experience. The dual-shear selector rod (DSSR) design spreads the torsional force of gear selections across the selector rod joint, reducing deflection for increased precision. Our DSSR is precision-machined from durable 304 stainless steel to further reduce deflection and resist corrosion.

Features:

Provides a more positive feel in the shifter by reducing play in the linkage due to minimized deflection Manufactured from 304 stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance and durability Replacement for 25112228055 (European E36 M3 Evolution) HEAVY-DUTY SHIFTER ARM - E36 420G

To cater to the six-speed swap E36 community, we designed a direct replacement and upgrade for the unavailable, 420G-specific shifter arm. Precision-machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum and clear anodized, this replacement carrier is durable, lightweight, and built to last. It is dimensionally identical to the OEM carrier, ensuring compatibility with the OEM shift carrier bushing, shift lever, and Turner Motorsport Double-Adjustable Short Throw Shifter Kit.

Features:

6061-T6 billet aluminum construction provides excellent durability and longevity Mil-spec clear anodized for superior corrosion resistance Dimensionally identical to its OEM counterpart, ensuring compatibility with all factory shifter components POLYURETHANE SHIFTER ARM BUSHING

This shifter bushing is designed to remove the shifter play caused by an old, failed rubber shifter bushing. Manufacturing the bushing from polyurethane instead of rubber reduces the amount of stretch caused by the moving part through the bushing. This maintains the direct crisp feel from your shifter assembly. When your OE shifter arm bushing begins to fail, you will notice slop in shifting, potentially making it easier to miss gears, and it often causes an obvious vibration and movement from the engine RPMs.

Features:

Corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel mounting sleeve with bonded 70a polyurethane Stiffer bushing results in a crisper shifter feel and a more engaging driving experience.
