I have all new shift bushings....
About 6 weeks old...
My car was hard to shift at first... after a few weeks they were better
Today the temp was 45.
Hard to shift again. It has been 80-90 here everyday I drove this car since finished the build...
Is this normal? Cold plastic bushings at 45-50 degrees much harder than 80-90 degrees?
Hope nothing is wrong with car...
Let me know what you think.
Full Version: hard to shift when cold outside?
bushings not lightly greased with white lithium, trans dope too heavy, not 80/90??? Trans rebuilt with syncro rings that are too pillowed.
Is the car grinding or just hard to get into gear?
