So here is what showed up at my doorstep, a set of shifter front fork bushings for a 2007-2009 shifter (includes both the KR and Ford Racing shifters as well) and another set for 2011-2014 shifters. The '07-'09 is on the left...
What's important is that in the end, the outside face to face dimensions are the same since the TR6060 ears are the same dimension apart for all years, '07-'14.
I started with the later set and the '13/'14 shifter assembly. You can remove the sleeve and bushing with your fingers...
The 6061 T6 bushings snapped in place perfectly...
Same went for the early bushings in my original 2009 shifter...
Both sets were very "snug"...
Once installed on the transmission, I grabbed the rear of the shifter assembly and tried to move it fore/aft as well as side to side. If there was any deflection my eye didn't see any...
Talk about a shit eating grin. Took me about a minute to swap the requisite factory rubber bushings back in so that I could do the same thing. Wow, they are bad! A simple two frame GIF...
As soon as I have the time these machined bushings will be going on the car!
