    Default Smoother Shifts???

    Well I dont remember if it was on this site, or another DSM site, but i remember reading a guide on everything that needs to be done as far as replacing clutchline, bushings, and other stuff in order to make your shifting smoother/better. I know this is very vague, but thats all i can remember. If anyone can help, Id greatly appreciate it. Thanks

    The metal Symborski ones are "precision-machined" and include the long metal bushing that go's threw the shifter as well. Which is why they are priced more then your average washer(s).
