was under the honda yesterday checking out some suspension issues and wile i was under there noticed both the shifting linkage arms where sloppy and the bushings where all cracked.

before i replace them i was wondering what having those bars loose would cause what are the side affects of them not being tight. i guess im trying to find out if replacing them will even change anything or not.

some of the shifts mainly just 2nd and 4th feel spungy, it go in sorta smooth but the shifter feels like its made of rubber when i hit the back of where the gear engages. i wasnt sure if these bushings had anything to do with that or not.

i think the bushings just affect slop in the shifter but i could be wrong.

The bushings make the shifting feel tighter and more crisp.

Replacing the shifter bushings greatly improves shifter feel. Urethane ones make it pretty notchy. But yes rubber new ones will eliminate slop
