Installed my base shifter bushings last week. This week I was going to tackle the cable bushings now. I pop out the OE bushings with relative ease, and I go to put in the fancy aluminum ones now...and the center pin won't freaking fit in the bushing!?! I can clearly see it's a bit smaller than the OE bushing...anyone else have this problem? Already tried to sand it down a tad and used some grease on it, it just won't quite fit.

Bought them from NYPPD

I might have to freeze them...in hopes of shrinkage.

 

I never had a problem, but I've never heard of NYPPD. Maybe order a drill or reamer of the right diameter and open up the hole a bit, to fit.

 

Return to buying NYPPD?

 

I brought a pair of calipers from work, going to measure the pin and the ID of the bushing and drill it out.

Their response was either return or make it fit. What a joke. I'll post what I get hopefully this weekend for future forum members to have for information if they need it.
