i know this sounds silly, but i did a b-18 swap, bought the avid shift linkage for the swap. The length is great but the shifter does not fit in the linkage without about a 1/2 gap, causing it to be loose. i guess my question is if the shifter is bigger on the integra or civic, if any difference. btw i have a short shifter, dunno know if that matters. thanks in advance for any help

 

Should not have that problem, assuming you're talking about the lower connection, did you put the washers back in?

 

just add washers it doesn't hurt.

 

i added alot of washers and it dosent have a firm feel, yes the lower connection, anybody willing to take measurements?

 

it's probably the short shifter that you're using. I used an Integra linkage with the integra shifter and it worked out just fine. Just a suggestion but maybe you can just go grab one out of the local scrap yard. With that motor there really isn't a need for the short shifter.

Hey there,

The short shifter you have is probably a civic short shifter which is why it is not as wide. The linkage we make for the 92-00 Civic, 94-01 Integra is designed to be used with an integra dual bend shifter. hope that helps if you have any other questions or inquiries, feel free to call our toll free 866-507-AVID.
