Key features

Before you replace
A shift lever bushing sits where the shifter shaft passes into the transfer case housing. Over time it wears, and the lever can develop play, a rattle or a loose feel when moving between gears. Because these bushings hold the shifter in alignment, worn ones can make the lever harder to move cleanly.
When replacing them, inspect the shifter shaft and bore for scoring or elongation before fitting new bushings. A badly worn bore may need more than a bushing swap, so check the shifter for free movement afterward. Clean the bore thoroughly and use a lubricant suited to transfer case shift components.
Work with the transfer case cool and the vehicle safely supported. Replacing both bushings together keeps wear even across the shifter.
- Check the shifter shaft for scoring
- Inspect the bore for elongation
- Test shift movement through every range after installation
