gear shift bushes

Post by saxon »

Hello all, Im new to this forum. I own an immaculate e21 318 henna rot, 1 owner and am restoring a genuine 81 black 323i motorsport.

Im in Australia and I'm trying to find the parts to replace worn gear shift bushes. My LSD gear box shifts well but the lever is very sloppy. Are the bushes the same in all e21 gearboxes?

Welcome here! Afaik the bushes used in the external shifter mechanism are the same indeed. You can find part nos using the parts catalog websites like bmwfans.info and realoem.com and the parts can still be obtained new from the dealer.
