Easy Upgrade For Honda Manual Transmission

After almost 200,000 miles the shifter on my Honda Element was getting sloppy. This is due to the normal wear of the rubber bushings on the shifter base and at the cable connections on the transmission. I replaced the rubber bushings with the aluminum bushings from Acuity and the problem is solved!

**This process will also work for several other Honda vehicles with manual transmissions.

Links for the parts I used below.

Thank you for watching!

  1. I checked out their website. Doesn't look like they have anything I need at the moment but I bookmarked them for future reference. Thanks, Eric!

  2. Glad you made this video, on my 04 civic coupe, I have a similar issue, but not knowing if it’s the shifter assembly, bushings, or stretched cables. When shifting on the up gears, not sure to side action, the shifter clicks in but goes past that now about 1/2 and inch when it didn’t use to. Please help Eric thanks!

  3. Nothing beats the old rod linkage shifting of the Integras. I have poly shifter bushings, with a slightly cut down shifter in my DA Integra, and the shifts are SOOO satisfying.

  4. Curious, would these bushings work for ‘90-‘93 Accords as they also have shifter cable linkages? I don’t see a lot of info on upgrading to this style for my car.

  5. This is News I Can Use as I try to resuscitate my sister's old '98 Civic sedan that she's had sitting her driveway for more than five years.
    I've got the engine running again but the rear brakes are locked up with rust. That's my next project.
    273,535 miles on it. the shifter isn't particularly sloppy but clutch resistance is nonexistent. I'll look into that once I get rolling.

    Thanks for the tip!

  6. I have acuity base bushing on my 2020 Civic Si as well as their short throw adapter, its literally night and day difference.

  7. Removing the linkage slop in the system must of made a ton of a difference.
    Great to know there are quality replacements from Acuity 😀

  8. On the shop, is it a problem of finding a location to rent or finding one that’s not backlogged like before? Glad to see you’re finding some little tidbits to share in the meantime.
