Product Description
Fits ALL MODELS (Right and Left hand drive)
It is highly advisable to the vehicle in REVERSE / 5th Gear before removing this collar and leave it like that until the item is replaced.
OUTRIGHT PURCHASE - There is NO NEED to send you old unit in.
This modification represents the ultimate selector shaft bush upgrade in that it offers a significant improvement over the original. Almost all selector shaft/collar assemblies are now moderately to heavily worn although this can be hard to see by eye until it is removed. If you grab the top of the shaft and move it laterally (side to side or front to back) there should only be a tiny amount of free play.
The collar is sleeved with a bush that returns the collar to true round (from oval). To the original tight tollerances. The bush/bearing surface area is increased to 500% of the original and straddles any wear grooves (notches) in the selector shaft itself thus returning this assembly to as good as new. It should also last longer than the original due to the increased bearing surface.
Fitting Note(s):
- No washer required
- Torque 80 fl lbs should not be exceeded. For guidance using a 24” breaker bar with a firm (but not stupid) amount of effort equates to approx 80ft lbs which is NOT excessive at all, just very firm. The only issue with doing it up too tight is that you’re unlikely to ever get it off again. It’s a very fine thread.
- A TINY amount of thread-locking compound is acceptable but not essential.
