Shifter Bushings
Hey, I'm supposed to get my DC Short Shifter installed tomorrow and my Energy Suspension Bushings I bought off of Ebay haven't showed up yet. Should I get the Short Shifter installed tomorrow and then just install the bushings later? I'm getting the short shifter profesionally installed. Can I install the bushings later myself? is it easy? I know I have seen a lot of articles on here to install the short shifter yourself but when it comes to my tranny I want it to be done right. thanks alot everyone.

Still here... sorta...
Dude... Installing a shifter is probably one of the simplest mods you can do. Why are you having a shop do it? :thinking:
I'd install it all at the same time, but it's not that hard to add them later.

I guess thes multiple DIY's you've seen might have told you that:thinking:
Seriously though, doing the bushings is almost as much work as doing the bushings AND the shifter, it still seems silly to pay somebody to do 1/4 of the job when the whole thing is a 30 minute opperation anyway. :dunno:

Have them do the bushings, you can do the stabilizer one while they have the shifter out. It's one more bolt to pull off the other bushing on the transmission end, pop it out and press it in. So, if you want to take them the long flat one and have them replace your stock one while they are doing your shifter and do your other later, it'd only be one bolt.
But, while they have it up I'd have them do the other bushing as well.
I've done 3 Bushing/Shifter installs personally, super easy.
