Bushing Size.

Post by flhmfd » Tue Jul 07, 2009 6:32 pm

What size are the stock shifter bushings for an 01' R/T?

Dealer lists 3 sizes for some reason.

They should come in a set. All the SRT bushings are the same, while the non-SRT's have one oddball large one.

measure the ID of your shift cable linkage at the shifter, get 3 of those. then go under the hood, and measure the ID of the other sized one, get 1 of those. win.

You mean to tell me that they can't use your VIN to find which ones you need? Go to another dealer :banghead:

I thought the bushings were only serviced (oem) via the shifter cables.

The dealer may be giving you the ones that go into the trans case for the shift selector shafts. ;)

The shift cable-shifter assy are serviced separately. All four bushings can be removed and replaced without servicing the linkage.

I have about 500 stock bushings, all in very good condition. PM me your mailing info, and for a $5 PayPal, I'll USPS Priority ship them to you.

Only problem is that I don't have any of the large bushings - you would need to swap in SRT4 cables to use all 4 small ones.

As for there being 3 different sizes, they're wrong. There are only 2 sizes - the small ones and the large one, the design of which have been in use since '89.

Is this the cause of my hardshifting? My shifter feels sloppy and notchy.

Worn or damaged bushings can cause difficult or inaccurate shifting. This, in turn, can damage your transmission.
