Gear shift Problems

[CHILDSEY]

I`m having a few problems when selecting gears
Never really sure what gear i`m in :?
I think this may be due to a worn gear stick bush,
has any one had similar trouble?
If so , how did ya fix it?

most probably the coupling on the gear box, easy to change.

might need these as well:

not as easy to fit as the previous one though, so worth trying that first.

Thanks for replys guys,
i will check both parts and see how worn they are.
Cheers Paul.

I had a problem similar to this, started heading towards checking all bushes, even thought about getting EMPI/SCAT shifter, in the end it was just the front mounting bolt at the bottom of the shifter had come loose. :roll:

If you're going to change gearbox coupling its better to get a urethane one
