[Charlie Stylianos]

Pelican contaced me and wanted to place an order for another production run, as these have been unavailable for at least a few years now.

While I'm placing the order for Pelican, I'm thinking it would be a good opportunity for any Dorki's to jump in to get these at a discounted price. I'm hoping to place the order at the begining of November and have them back by early December.

Dorki discounted pricing will be $35/set.

A little background:

Between the shift lever and the transmission there are many places where 20+ years of wear between components can contribute to a sloppy feel in the shifter, the shift coupler being one of them. Even with fresh OEM or aftermarket bushings there is still a fair amount of play in the coupler due to the plastic bushings deforming under load, warping over time, and eventually damping the feel between the transmission and shifter.

These Brass Bushings are machined to tight tolerances, creating a direct link between the shift rod and transmission with virtually no play or isolation. The result is a marked improvement of crispness and precision in the shifter and increased feel and feedback from the transmission, quite comparable to more expensive u-joint type replacements.

The Brass Bushings will fit the following models - years:

356 - 1962-65

914 - 73-76

912 - 1965 - 1969, 1976

911 - 1965 - 1986

911 - Turbo (930) 1976 - 1988


I would also recommend replacing the ball-cup bushing underneath the shifter housing and the shift rod bushing in the tunnel behind the shifter housing. These are the other 2 most common links that wear over time.
