Restore precise gear selection and reduce excessive shifter play with this OEM-style Manual Transmission Shift Lever Bearing Bushing replacement. Designed to support the gear shift lever at its pivot point, this shift ball cup base helps maintain smooth shifting operation, proper lever support, and accurate gear engagement.

Replacing a worn bearing helps restore factory shift feel and more consistent manual transmission operation.

Manufactured to OEM-style specifications, this replacement shift lever bearing is engineered for precise fitment, smooth operation, and long-term durability. Constructed from high-quality wear-resistant plastic, it provides reliable support for the shift lever assembly while maintaining OEM shifting characteristics.

Whether you are performing a shifter refresh, manual transmission repair, or preventative maintenance, this direct-fit replacement helps restore smooth, accurate gear changes and a more solid shifter feel.

Designed for manual transmission applications.
