short throw shifter

[wrxwaggy]

I just got a short throw from doylfish (thanks matt) and i dont know too much about the installation. Is it a hard process? Thanks for any help!

[doylfish]

i already told you son, jackstands and a little bit of elbow grease, and a six pack for me ~ok~

can't be too hard think about getting all the tic bushing's and stuff when you are in there.

I'm ordering there holyshift kit in a few weeks.

[doylfish]

i got the TIC rear diff bushings for you too if you want...once you start throwing some skrill my way


~bounce~

Jackstands? What kind of short throw is it? STI?

[chris07outback]

If you got a kartboy or cobb it will be very easy just pop off the trim around the shifter, take off the knob and push back toward the rear seats on the shift lever. The lever will come free from its place. To put it in you will need a plastic mallet or a hammer and block of wood because it is a b*tch to get back in.

Oh yeah, grease it. I used the black stuff.

Do i need to take the plastic surrounding the shifter off?

gonna need it up on jackstands or ramps to put the bushings in, it's not just the shifter going in

[chris07outback]

Yeah i havent done my shifter bushings yet. lmk how easy they go in and if there are any hangups.

[chris07outback]

if you are referring to the trim piece then yes. it pops right off

haha, not even close, but i can hold my own at least

[chris07outback]

Well I have a bucket of grease and no patience so Im half way there and it will eventually get done. I want them done soon because I hear they make all the difference.

[doylfish]

yeah, they definitely do a good bit of wonder, talk about not realizing the 'slop' till you do it

[wrxwaggy]
