This kit is made up of 4 key components: TiC Shift Linkage Bushings, TiC Pivot Bushings, Kartboy Front Shifter Bushings, and Kartboy Rear Shifter Stay Bushings Together, they transform the shifting experience in your Subaru.

TiC Shift Linkage Bushings

• These replace the soft rubber bushings in the shift linkage joint. Over time, the stock bushings “pack out,” creating excessive side-to-side slop at the end of the stick. Whether your Subaru is an early or later model, and whether you have the stock shifter, STi/SPT short shifter, or another aftermarket lever, the stock bushings allow sloppy, vague shifts. Our stiffer polyurethane bushings minimize side-to-side play, prevent packing out, and give your shifts a much more positive, precise engagement—while keeping NVH close to stock.

TiC Pivot Bushings

• These bushings are installed directly in the shifter lever under the leatherette shift boot, not down by the transmission, making them easy to replace from inside the car in just a few minutes. Upgrading to these bushings noticeably improves shift feel, making the shifter tighter, more precise, and enjoyable to use. They are a direct replacement for the stock pivot bushings, which can wear over time and create slop in the lever.

Kartboy Front and Rear Shifter Stay Bushings

• Subaru uses soft rubber for the shift lever’s hard mounting points, which results in vague fore-and-aft motion. The Kartboy stay bushings replace the stock rubber with stiffer urethane, eliminating slop and giving each gear a crisp, positive click. The result is a shift feel that is much tighter and more responsive.
