Shift rail detent parts
A poppet ball sits in a spring-loaded bore and presses into detents on the shift rail, which holds each gear position. When the ball or its spring wears, the shift can feel soft or the gear may slip out of position under load. Replacing worn parts keeps the shift feel consistent.
Poppet balls are usually replaced together with the spring and the bore cover when a shift rail is opened, since those parts work as a set. Inspect the bore for scoring and check the ball for flat spots or pitting before installing a new one. Clean the bore thoroughly so debris does not sit under the new ball.
Before ordering, confirm fit for your vehicle’s year, model and trim, and confirm the transmission type on the shift rail. Work on the transmission with the vehicle supported and the battery disconnected, and keep track of any small springs during removal.
