KB-003-REAR

Overview:

The Kartboy Rear Shifter Bushing is a precision-engineered upgrade designed to replace the soft, factory rubber bushing located in the transmission tunnel above the driveline. This component works in conjunction with the main shifter bushings to stabilize the shifter assembly’s mounting base, delivering a tighter, more consistent shifting experience. Ideal for enthusiasts and daily drivers alike, this bushing enhances the overall feel of your manual transmission by reducing unwanted play and improving shift precision.

Handmade in the USA with durable urethane, the Kartboy Rear Shifter Bushing offers long-lasting performance and reliability. Whether you’re navigating spirited backroads or commuting, you’ll appreciate the crisp, confidence-inspiring shifts this upgrade provides.

Key Features:

This rear shifter bushing is thoughtfully designed to improve your vehicle’s shifting feel and durability. Key features include:

• Constructed from super durable urethane for enhanced longevity and resistance to wear compared to factory rubber bushings
• Direct OEM replacement that fits precisely into the factory mounting location without modification
• Stabilizes the shifter assembly’s mounting base to reduce slop and improve shift consistency
• Tightens overall shifter movement for a more precise and engaging driving experience
• Handmade in the USA with strict quality control and backed by a 100% guarantee
• Includes all necessary hardware for straightforward installation
• Compatible with Toyota 86 (2017–2020), Subaru BRZ (2013–2020), and Scion FR-S (2013–2016)

Construction & Design:

The Kartboy Rear Shifter Bushing is crafted from high-quality urethane, chosen for its superior durability and resistance to the softening and deterioration common with factory rubber bushings over time and mileage. This material maintains its firmness and shape under stress, ensuring consistent performance throughout the life of the part.

Its design focuses on reinforcing the shifter assembly’s mounting base located in the transmission tunnel, directly above the driveline. By replacing the original soft rubber bushing with this stiffer urethane unit, the bushing minimizes unwanted movement and flex, resulting in a more direct and tactile shifting feel.

Installation & Fitment:

The Kartboy Rear Shifter Bushing is a direct replacement for the OEM rear bushing and installs easily using factory mounting points. No cutting, drilling, or special tuning is required, making it a straightforward upgrade for enthusiasts seeking improved shift feel without complicated modifications.

Note that when used on certain older Subaru models—specifically the 1998–2005 Forester, 2000–2004 Legacy, 2003–2006 Baja, and 1998–1999 Legacy Outback—this bushing may raise the shifter height slightly. However, for the Toyota 86, Subaru BRZ, and Scion FR-S models listed, it fits as intended without altering shifter position.
