CapYoda's Precise Shifting Bushing Kit is the BOMB

Well worth the 16 bucks I paid for them. No need to pay 100 bucks for the SS or those other brands. Excellent product and great instructions. Shipping was fast and was a smooth transaction. This product is well worth getting and it doesn't break the bank

I give it


keep bringing on the products!!

Yea, I've got the KumoSport bushings and they rock also. Sorry Yoda, couldn't wait long enough for yours to be released.

heh woah thanks for the compliment. I dont think its THAT great but glad you like it.

yeah I wish I got it out sooner but its tough to get these things going by yourself when you dont know what you're doing. lol.

hopefully a lot of people will be interested in the polyurethane front sway bar bushings.

you are comparing 2 different things, the SS is a short shifter which is self explanatory, all the bushings do is make the shifts stiffer since they are not rubber bushings any more, get a short shifter and the bushings for even better shifting!

Umm......IDQcivic.......you need to re-read his statement. He did word it wierdly and I though the same thing. But go back and read it slowly. I think he meant that just by adding the bushings alone on thestock shifter made a big improvement. What he doesn't know is that if he gets the REVO then he will get even better perfomance. Especially if he gets GREY's SS upgrade kit.

But you are right IDQ, he needs to learn to speak english.

was about to say they are two completely different products. The short shifter shorts your throws and the bushings allow for a more sturdy shift and precise shift. But its a great start for a tranny mod

I relist it whenever I can. instead of having it for bidding, I just use the fixed price (buy it now) feature now. I think its better this way.

feedbacks are whatever, IMO. you shouldn't let it concern you too much. I have over 100 transactions but only like half the feedback. *shrug*

motor mount insert?

hmm. er.. I dont think I mention I was ever going to do that..

I think Grey may have mentioned about that. Is he making them?

Ah... and your motor mounts have been ripping apart? hmm.. does that have something to do with the engine noises topic I see in the Vehicle Issue/problem forum?

Hey Yoda,

I have the Revo SS installed, but my shifts feel like crap...your bushings will fit with the Revo SS right? Sorry I don't know much about shifter assemblies...

yeah it'll work with the revo fine.

if your shift feels like "crap," describe it more... does it feel lose? if u feel that much of "crappyness" it might be something else besides the shifter bushings...

check the joints where the cables are connected, a couple washer at the point where the main cable is attached to the shifter tightening it up will help.... grey's revo upgrade kit fixed some aspects of the revo.. but he's not selling that anymore.

greasing up some points will help a lot too, making shifting less stiff and more smooth.

I'd double check the install.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...401937120&rd=1

I remember Grey telling me during a 1on1 conversation that he might be bringing out some polyurethane motor mounts...

I didn't know ours rip that easily. hmm.

I hope it wasn' t like "dont tell people about it" thing... if so, sorry Grey! heh
