Are you sure you don't have shifter bushings that are completely shot? I'd get in there and replace them, too. Gear oils last a long time.

I am almost certain you have to put a GL4 spec fluid in there. Double-check. I think you're supposed to put this in there... But again, double check!

Here are two overviews of shifter bushing placement, etc. There's rubber that cracks and contributes to slop in your shifts.

It's a great little upgrade. I am using aluminum shifter bushings I purchased off eBay for around $10.

RobertDIY used some bearings which are probably much better!

That price is just ridiculous. If only I had a 3D printer.

Delrin bushings in general are expensive... $170 for the subframe bushings I want.
