Sloppy Shifter Fix
Recently bought an 81 SR5 that had major slop in the shifter. After a little research, I discovered that the problem was more than likely the Shifter Rod Bushings. Easy fix except I couldn't seem to find any "Big Box" store that could get the parts. Long story short, I found the parts at lowrangeoffroad.com. They specialize in Toys and Suzukis and had a good inventory for '79+ Toys. The fix took 15 min and I'm shifting smooth now. Thought this might help if anyone is having this prob.

Thank you, Thank you :) haha |
Yeah those shifter bushings don't cure everything.
The L50 i pulled from my 81' has major shifter slop, as well as sliding in and out of 4th with no resistance, and both bushings are good.. so... |

Dude thats cool, I've had some slop in my 83's shifter for awhile now didn't think much of it, but a $16 fix, man you can't beat that! :rockon:

Thank you for the info. I just received my set from Marlin. I only have a little slop in my shifter but I do not want any. I run Mobil 1 gear oil in my trans and I am amased how quiet and smooth the transmission operates after 28 years of use.
