Posting for a friend. He needs the rear shift shaft and swivel joint. His has been welded together and the bushings are missing. Any help is appreciated here is a picture of what he has.

Thanks in advance

Jon

Bushings are replaceable - just have to carefully press the center pin out, and carefully pressing it back in when installing the new bushings.

Shouldn't the coupler slide out of the rear shaft?

Have your friend pm me if he still needs this part.

just replaced one today for a friend's 74 1.8FI. Around 30 mins job to remove and install the new bushings. I think I have one coupler. I will check tomorrow.

Hey Jon....I think you're mistaken about what you need.
The pin that goes through the bushings IS removable.
It is a tight fit but it will press out.
So.... press it out...replace bushings...carefully press pin back in.
Nothing slides out of the rear shaft. The weld you see is original.

How many times does it need to be said?

Pelican sells the bushings and they're relatively cheap $


T H O M A S made me some bronze shift coupler bushings before he went back to Germany ... I'll never have to replace them again
