TWM Shifter Cable Bushings installed (fg1)

***m1k3*** · 03-08-2007, 07:13 PM

just a little review, i'll post pics in a bit.

Install:
The install seemed easy enough, but one of the cutter pins did NOT want to come out.

i ended up ditching the idea of sliding it out and got some fat pliers and just yanked it out. the other cutter pin came out in like 1 minute, i wasted like 20 trying to get the first one out.

everything else was easy, got a couple cuts thanks to the pita cutter pin but it was worth it.

Review:
Shifting is much less notchy now, other mods i have are the comptech SS and TWM base bushings.

used to be, when i would downshift from 3rd to second it was so damn notchy that i would have to take it out and push it in twice so that it would go in, thats gone now

havent quick shifted in it yet but i expect it to be very nice.

Next up i plan on putting in amsoil or GM syncromesh MT fluid, hopefully the install on that wont be too hard
