Rb25 shifter or not.

[menphus]

G’day. 

Bought a 25 box of gumtree and the fella “had to find the shifter”  the shifter feels a bit sloppy and jams up after a while (falls out of the selector). Is it possible the shifter is too short. Has anyone got a proper rb25 gearbox shifter they could measure so I can compare with mine? 

Cheers.

It may have a mounting plate for short shifter on it which can be removed and the normal shifter will work.

Thats what happened to me when i got a gearbox conversion.

Yes it is an RB20/25/30 shifter. But you are missing the plastic bushing that goes on the end of the shifter. Google will help you find what it looks like. I suggest going on gktech website and buying a brass bushing for it, much better feel than the standard plastic one.

yea got the white plastic cup on the bottom, just a dummy and forgot to upload them.

righto lads,  FYI it turns out the length from where the stick seats into the carrier that's locked by the circlip to the ball/cup at the end of the stick is shorter than a stick from a RB25 box, i found this out by comparing it to a mates set up.

I am not sure where the stick that i have came from but it is defiantly shorter therefor why it falls out when selecting gears. 

 

 So if anyone has a rb25 gear stick i am looking to buy one.

Cheers for all ya help.
