This bushing is the point where the shifter arm pivots. If you are experiencing excess play in your shifter, this could be the cause. Worn out shifter ball bushings allow too much movement from wear over time.

The shift lever out of the Z3 M Roadster and M Coupe is a direct replacement for the factory part. Some people use the shift lever on other models and it can reduce the shift throw by as much as 30%. The only downside to installing this on other 3 series models is that the shift is not bent like the stock 3 series part and will not be properly centered unless modified.

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 .

Turner Motorsport Chassis Mount Short Throw Shifter

Upgrade your BMW's shifting experience with the Turner Motorsport Chassis Mount Short Throw Shifter—the ultimate solution for precision, control, and race-inspired performance. Designed to eliminate excessive play, reduce shift throw, and enhance driver engagement, this shifter transforms your driving experience with a solid, direct feel that brings excitement to every shift.

Why Upgrade?

BMW's factory shifter assemblies are known for their vague and imprecise feel due to excessive play, soft bushings, and long throw distances. Traditional short shifters reduce shift length but often retain the factory shift carrier, which still allows flex and movement. The Turner Motorsport Performance Chassis Mount Short Shifter takes performance to the next level by completely removing the shift carrier, eliminating all bushing flex and driveline movement for unparalleled precision.

Unlike standard setups, this shifter features an elevated base that moves the fulcrum point higher, resulting in dramatically shorter throws and crisp, accurate shifts. The tall "rally-style" shift lever enhances leverage and positions the shifter closer to the steering wheel for faster gear changes. Additionally, an adjustable centering spring lets you fine-tune self-centering force for the perfect balance of resistance and smoothness.

Features & Benefits

Ultra-Short Throw – Optimized geometry and a raised fulcrum point drastically reduce shift travel for lightning-fast gear changes. Maximum Precision – Chassis-mounted design eliminates bushing flex and floating movement for a direct, race-inspired feel. Solid Shifter Engagement – Eliminates side-to-side play and imprecise gear selection for ultimate driver confidence. Adjustable Centering Spring – Customize the self-centering force to suit your driving style and preference. Premium Materials & Finish – Constructed from 6061 aluminum, 4130 steel, and 316 stainless steel with a durable black anodized finish for strength and longevity. Universal Fitment – Compatible with multiple BMW chassis using the included base plate and hardware (see "Fits These Cars" for exact applications). Race-Inspired Engineering

Designed for enthusiasts who demand the best, the Turner Motorsport Chassis Mount Short Shifter provides unmatched shift feel and precision. The spherical bearing pivot with a maintenance-free brass insert ensures durability and smooth operation, while the rugged CNC-machined construction withstands aggressive shifting and track abuse.

Take full control of your BMW’s shifting performance with Turner Motorsport’s ultimate short shifter upgrade—built for the road, perfected for the track.
