BushingFix TB1Kit - Automatic Transmission Shift Cable Bushing Repair Kit, Replacement Shifter Cable Bushing, Quality Transmission Repair Kit, Compatible with Chevrolet, Jeep, Ford and Other Brands

There are many versions of this Escape shifter pivot bushing replacement kit. This one with the installation tool shows more thought about how the DIY-er must actually use the item. I had a hard time getting the bushing INTO the installation tool (that was a good thing since it showed the resilience of the the slotted end and the base material.) Once installed, I pushed it THROUGH the eyelet toward the shifter pin. Tool slipped right off and within 2 seconds, the linkage was reassembled. Tight fit (a good thing) and I used some lithium grease on the pivot. In hindsight, the grease MIGHT make it easier to install but MAY make it more likely to pop off as well. Time will tell if the lubrication is a plus or minus. Surely, not needed since the bushing is 'slick' enough as is. And the lifetime guarantee may be useless but tells me the US-based company stands behind the product.

Came on time. Fit as it should. Wasn’t as easy as the video makes it look. It took a little manipulating to get on the shifter cable but that just means it fit tightly. As far as life span…I guess we’ll see. Overall satisfied with purchase.

As mentioned, it fits perfectly on my 2017 Ford Fusion. I've had it on there for a few years now with no issues, so it passes the durability test as well! Highly recommended.

2010 jeep wrangler the bushing broke and the truck wouldn’t go into any gear. after installing this,which is soft plastic made it a little difficult to fit but it worked . shifter still has a little play not as perfect as OEM but now i’m able to select gears. for the money you can’t beat it .

Ordered this a few days ago , received it on time , ( usually always on time with Amazon or prime), very small package with the white bushing and red install tool. If you haven't done this before, READ the instructions, if not you might end up having the bushing and the install tool up- side down. Don't know if you could get bushing back out with significant damage to the bushing, would probably have to order another one. Use some kind of lubricant to help get bushing into install tool, takes a little muscle , push the bushing all the way down until it is completely seated,( the top lip of bushing needs to be seated flat on the install tool. I have a '08 Sebring, just took me less than fifteen mins to take the air box out for easy access to the shifting cable. Make sure and check your cable, check your adjustment nut on plastic part and make sure it is snug up tight, or you can take it completely off and do a simple re-adjustment when re- installing. So now take the bushing and install tool and take your shifting cable, make sure all of the old bushing is out of the grommet hole, then I cleaned mine wit a small SS wire brush, then I used some silicone grease both on The grommet holder and The grommet itself. Take install tool making sure red part is oriented in the right direction, facing down, insert long side of install tool into shifting grommet, and then pull the long part down ward, this can take a little muscle, I ended up using some small lock grips and pulled the install through the bottom, make sure you get it completely seated, with top lip flat on top of shifting cable grommet. Make sure you use your favorite lube on the bushing and on the tit for the shifting lever. Take the bushing notched side down, and press on to the shifting lever tit. Make sure it is seated completely seated on shifting lever and it will rotate and won't pull off. Then have someone get in the car , run through park, reverse, neutral, drive, one and two. Then run back through gears back to park, all why watching the shifting cable under the hood. Your shifting cable and bushing should slide easily from park to low and back. Before I put air box in, I opened up the air box and examined the air filter, a little dirty so I cleaned it and put it back into the air box, re-installed. the air box, checked everything, started the motor, went through all the gears, down then up, worked perfectly, put it in drive drove around a few blocks, parked, opened hood to check bushing and everything is in tact. So I know this was a long drawn out review, but wanted everyone to know what you might want to do to install your bushing correctly. So I am by no means much of a mechanic, but this is super easy, and I would say 30 mins total, that's taking air box out , cleaning air filter, re-installing air box, and doing check on car was probably about 30 mins. Very easy install!!

Holy smokes! Easy instructions! If you know, just a little teeny tiny bit about cars and you know how to look under the hood, you can fix this issue with this bushing.I think it took me longer to take it out of the packaging than it did to install.Incredible job, incredible product, as a matter fact, I just bought a second one just in case it happens again!
