Had them on my car for 4 years. The inner diameter where it sits on the shifter wears. I had like 1mm of back and forth play in them. No wonder my shifter felt funny.

They are brass. I should have guessed they would do that. I guess I am going back to stock bushings :)

Amazon, E-bay, local skate shop

There is a user on a facebook group selling a nice set up made to fit right in the loops.

Stock is better, you don't feel every little action in the shift sequence.

If you run the brass ones put a little white grease on the posts.

I like feeling that.

I have been running the aluminum ones off of eBay for years now. No play in them at all. I'm pretty sure brass is a lot softer than aluminum so it will develop play after some time.
