034 Motorsports Billet Shifter Bushing Kit for Audi & Volkswagen 1998+, CNC Machined Aluminum
$63.00

If you're looking to tighten up your shifting game, the 034Motorsport Billet Solid Shifter Bushing Kit is a solid upgrade that really makes a difference. I swapped out my factory rubber bushings for this kit, and man, the transformation was noticeable right away. The factory rubber just can’t compete with the precision of these machined billet aluminum and bronze components. You get this direct feel that makes shifting through the gears feel like a whole new experience.

What I appreciate about this kit is how it’s crafted from billet 6061 aluminum. It fits snugly in the factory shift linkage ends, and the bronze sleeve bearings? Those are built to last, giving you years of maintenance-free operation. No more worrying about wear and tear on those rubber bushings that just don’t cut it. With this upgrade, you can expect fast, clean, and precise shifts every time you grab the gear lever.

Installation is a breeze, which is great if you're a DIY mechanic like me. You don’t need to be a pro to get this done. Just a few tools and some elbow grease, and you’ll be on your way to a much improved shifter feel. It’s an affordable performance upgrade that packs a punch in terms of shifting accuracy.

  • Eliminates the squishiness of factory rubber bushings for a more responsive feel.
  • Billet aluminum side plates that are black anodized to resist corrosion.
  • Bronze bushings mean you won’t have to worry about replacing them anytime soon.
  • Precision machining ensures a perfect fit—no guesswork here.

Specifications:

  • Fore and Aft: Rectangle with 8.5mm Bushing
  • Side to Side: Round with 10mm Bushing

Fitment: This kit is designed for manual transmission models, so make sure you’re not trying to put it in an automatic. Here’s a quick rundown of what it fits:

  • Audi A3 8P 2.0T & TDI (2006-2013)
  • Audi TT 8N (MkI) (2000-2006)
  • Audi TT MKII 8J (2.0T) (2008-2015)
  • Various Volkswagen models like the Alltrack, Beetle, Golf, GTI, Jetta, and more, all manual transmission only.

Note: Just a heads up, there are a couple of things to check before you buy. Make sure to measure the pivot shaft diameter to ensure you get the right fit. Also, check the shape of the fore and aft shifter linkage—whether it's rectangular or round. It’s all about making sure you get the right version for your ride.

In short, if you’re serious about your manual transmission and want to feel every shift, give this 034Motorsport Billet Solid Shifter Bushing Kit a shot. You won’t regret it.
