aftermarket shift linkage components Options

[jmargush]

Does anyone have any experience with the various aftermarket shift linkage components?

More specifically the bronze shift console bushing and the J West rear ball coupler?

I know Tangernine's system seems the best option but looking for lower cost alternatives.

Are they worth the investment or not much better than stock bushing?

The stock bushes aren't a great fit ,reason being they have to be under size O.D. just to fit in their locations ,the Tangerine bulkhead and the console bush cover that issue , the slop is then gone , the Tangerine complete system is next ($$$) level IMO.
It wasn't practical for me to import so I built my own one, used buggy supply sealed uni's front and rear and fabbed the holder for the second rear bronze bush as a secure bolt on to the original console.
The end result is a notchy nice positive feel when shifting ,you really know you are in the gear you selected if set up well .
You can use the stock shifter ball bush ,Tangerine bulkhead bush and the bronze rear one you will be well pleased, cheers.
