Install Pics and tips

These stiffer urethane bushings will stiffen the shifter base. Stock, the shifter base is bolted to the floor with soft rubber bushings. This allows the shifter base and the shifter it 's self to move around quite a bit. These bushings will considerably stiffen this up and improve shifter feel. Install is very easy when done at the same time as installing the B&M short shifter. We only sell the ES shifter included with the B&M shifter. However, you can also order them with any other order ($15). They are too small to be worth shipping alone.
