Title: shifter bushings for 1969 Z28?
Post by: JST69Z28 on July 17, 2023, 02:43:03 PM

I just cleaned up the original Hurst Comp Plus shifter on my 69 Z28 and it had some rubber or plastic bushings (mine were crumbling or missing) in the joint where the shift rods attach to the shifter body.  Are those available and/or needed?  I had purchased a Hurst Pit Pack but those did not work.  For now, I reassembled it with some lube and without the rubber pieces.

Yes they are required. Kinda strange how many people do not do this 7 days a week anymore. Many newbies to this hobby/biz lately. Call Jody's Transmissions and get a kit. Great tech and biz man.

I'm sure you can find them on eBay and other places as well.
