I'm referring to the very bottom of the shifter, where it connects to the car. I know it's gotta be simple, but I'm just not 100% sure which bushings I need! Shifter is B&M
Are they these?

I'm referring to the 2 identical ones and the collar... my shifter is B&M. Thanks!

Those are between the linkage and the shifter, and where the linkage mounts to the car. Which should be all you need.

Identical ones push together and become the bushing at the tranny end. The collar is what pushes into that bushing at the tranny that the bolt slides into. The large bushing is what mounts the linkage to the car body by the shifter.

EJeff8

A B&M comes with it's own special rubber bushings that go on the sleeve that connects the shifter to the linkage and also bushings that go into between the shifter and linkage mount.

Rigginit

Pretty much same deal. Just to be clear, none of those go to the tranny.
The shaft and the 2 identical bushings seat in the bottom of the shifter where the linkage meets. The large one as stated above.

EJeff8

This is wrong. All that goes and mounts toward the tranny end.

Went and took a look under the car (been a while since under it) and he is right. My mistake. If mods could delete my posts here to filter out the BS from future searches, it would be much appreciated.

Lol, you can edit it mang.

Ok, so I'm still unclear on what I need. Here's a picture...

The bushing I'm talking about is the one on the bottom of the shifter...The one that's all torn. I got my B&M and the energy suspension's linked above, and I did do what SpecialBrownie said (Go Browns). This was months ago, and recently I stumbled on that picture which told me I was missing something. And then I second guessed whether those identical guys were supposed to go in the shifter...but I see now.

All my B&M came with were several different O-rings, small ones. I had no clue where they were supposed to go, but I knew they did not function as that torn up thing above does. I was told that I can find that bushing I need cheap on eBay, I just don't know what to search for... thanks for the responses

uppity

Okay. The B&M comes with 4 small identical bushings, 3 larger identical bushings and one large bushing.

The 4 small ones go around the collar that slides into the shifter, which then bolts to the linkage mount. If you drive a D SERIES Civic, you would put those four on the collar, slide the collar into the shifter, and then grab TWO of the LARGER bushings and put them on the outside of the shifter, which is what we see here.

If you drove a B SERIES Civic, you would put those four on the collar, slide the collar into the shifter, and then grab ALL THREE of the LARGER bushings, put two on the passenger side, one on the driver side, then take the LARGEST ONE and also put it on the driver's side.

You look like you just need the replacement bushings for the D Series version. I'm sure B&M sells replacement packs.

Hmm I see. Do you know what those look like? All I got with my B&M was several red o-rings as I described. Are those the "bushings"? I recall trying to squeeze those in there somehow without much aim and ended up ripping them all . None of them were bigger than an inch in diameter. Mine is D-series. So I need the 4 samll bushings, the collar, and the 2 large bushings, correct? Thanks

djslim23

Like those little guys? As you see in the picture, it didn't come with a collar, which must be why I screwed them up, I was switching from an ebay short shifter that the previous owner had, and there was no collar).
So I'm guessing I need the OEM collar (number 11 in this picture)

EJeff8

Yep, the collection of o-rings in that picture of the shifter package is what you need. And correct again, you need part #11, the OEM collar. On that collar are 4 grooves, which is where you'll place the 4 small o - rings. Then, you'll slide that into the B&M shifter, then you'll place two same sized O - rings between the shifter and the linkage mount it bolts to. Bolt down and BAM! Awesome B&M shifter, I should know. I own one :D

djslim23

Ahhhh! Why Thank you! Now it's just a matter of getting B&M to send me them!


Go Browns!

EJeff8

When finished, it will look exactly like this for a D series Civic.

EJeff8

And yes, GO BROWNS!

djslim23

Yes, that's what I needed to see. Thank you! WOOF WOOF
