Last weekend I took a friends shift assembly apart to install an RS short shifter and all new bushings. I noticed the rubber bushings in the shift rod coupler were pretty worn and had a lot of slop. I started looking for replacements and found a bunch of poly options, but then I stumbled upon brass ones, they're listed for 65-88, but look exactly like the 964 part, so I figured for $46 shipped, I'd give them a try.

They pressed right in like the originals and work like a champ. It's a night and day difference in the feel of the shifter, there's no more slop at all. Next weekend I do my car.

Anyone else using these?

Could this work for C4 as well?

If you read through robt964's rebuild thread, I believe he came up w/ a DIY solution using spherical joints.

I'm not sure, does the C4 have a different style coupler at the trans?

I have an extra of what flyintomato has pictured- the rod and shifter bracket if anyone needs one. I went with a rothsport billet. PM me.

When someone verifies they work on a C4, please let us know. I'd like to buy them as well...

To be perfectly honest, I do not know, I'd like to think they are the same!

I also have a c4 and want to do this. I'm gonna check when I install a new floor board.

Anyone confirm this works on the C4? I don't really see why they would have a different part. All 911s seem to use the same setup.

C2 and C4 have different ends on the shift rod

If you click on "zoom in" you can see the photo is the C2 part but image in the parts diagram is of a C4 rod.

I think therefore the above bushing is for C2 only.

Is there a part number for the OE bushing?
