Default Need DYI guide for Password:JDM Hardened Shift Link

I recently ordered and received a Password:JDM Hardened Shift Linkage Bushing Kit (B-Series). Now it came with no instructions or anything.

Anyone have a DYI guide on how to do it?

well its pretty easy to install the bushing, i got the same one by the ways. while at the track it popped out on me 2x. so with an jack it takes me less than 10min to pop back into place. once you secure the car, go underneath, you will see the bushing. take out the pin and the bushing. pop the new in place. i know I'm making it sound easy but it truly is man, my car is jacked up right no and ill see if i can take a pic of it, then i can take you through it step by step, Ive only did it 2x but i know how to install now.

ohh forgot to mention, it wasn't the hardened bushing that popped out on me, it was the OEM, now i don't encounter the problem anymore. and shifting does feel easier.

it's pretty simple. there are two bolts underneath the shifter and another bolt holding the linkage to the tranny. you might have to drop the exhaust b-pipe so you can have easier access. i ended up having to do this. other than that it's pretty straight forward. the bushing that connects to the tranny is going to be stiff, i had a hard time trying to get that sucker in there, but using my foot (literally) popped it in.

oh and you got ripped off if you paid $39 for the set. i got my energy suspension set for $19. does the same thing, and comes in a nifty red color.
