🤣 thanks that's some good advice

Richard do you have the short shifter install from the factory? And if you do will any of this mods will be beneficial for the shifter o make any difference?

Rubber is cheaper when building thousands of cars, also it absorbs any possible vibration. We did not notice any new vibration with this mod. But to anyone asking us about additional vibrations and etc after modifying a car, I always tell them to leave it stock. If you like the stock feel then don't mess with it. :) If looking for something a bit more sporty and connected feel to the mechanical workings then it's a perfect simple mod.

Thanks for the reply. I'll go ahead and order one and see how it goes.

Note2ybk Do share your thoughts on how it feels with the brass bushing

Comes down to cost of production for Subaru. Rubber is less expensive and easier to manufacture. There is a slight increase in vibration at idle, but it is hardly noticeable.

diego87tennis I will, but may have to wait a while. Even though it should be a pretty quick install...I've been too busy lately.

Yes as the transmission connection point is still the same. It would work.

Dileep I know this is super late but for anyone else I had this issue as well, I tried for over an hour to get it on with no luck, I finally took a small piece of sandpaper and sanded the rod a little. After that the bushing slid right on

Having the same issue with 2021 :(

same did u ever get it on?

@@alexrendon5160 I forced it on, I do not recommend doing so. Ended up taking it off but it was a pain in the ass

im having that same exact problem as i type this.. any recommendations please!!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

@@ladfan2649 never worked for me, had it like 3/4 on for a while but ended up taking it off. was a major pain in the ass and i felt no difference after installing lol

YO! im having the same problem, any fix?????

@@jakeambrosia5126 I dont have the car anymore but I was able to install it. We lifted the car and pushed the bushing prying using a steel rod . It poped right in perfectly. Protect everything to avoid damaging the bushing. You wont be able to install it with your bare fingers laying under the car.

@@vinceruel5131 alright cool, thanks for the response.

Great thanks, in for one

yes

This just happened to me! Wondering if you ever found a replacement?

@@mariocaltagarone5652 Any update on the replacement? I had the same problem.

Mecha_Ghidrah get more leverage...and make sure you’re yanking the right bolts.

Yes

Your Subi didn't come with a jack and stands?

Warranty's can't be voided, a mod can only give them reason to deny the claim. The mod would also have to directly affect the broken piece that is covered by the warranty to be used as a reason to deny the claim.

Research the magnuson moss wareanty act

John Kelly lol what

Just saying my bushing would go onto the little shaft, OR go into the hole for the linkage (with a LOT, A WHOLE LOT of difficulty), i stressed and shoved and sweated trying to get both things to line up and it simply would not get the angle to install correctly, no matter which part i installed it into 1st. My bushing was NEVER going to fit on both, i even countersunk the inside to give the install angle less of a lip to overcome and still nothing, the rubber gasket eventually broke off so i threw the thing across the garage, then found it to return it. I found many similar complaints in the product review, wondering if they should try another batch bc theirs was NEVER going to fit either.

@@johnwethekylow currently going through this right now lol and my hands are fucked trying to get this thing on the bushing

Good luck man, if you succeed and can share any wisdom I still want to get one on my car.

@@johnwethekylow So I ended up just taking off the part and just putting back on the OEM rubber one because it would not slide onto the transmission rod like in the video. fuck all that
