    Hi fellow foxers,

    Given that 4-speed bushings are no longer available or really hard to find, I am sending a few of these complete bushing kits up north.

    A set includes the correct size shifter linkage bracket bushings, the ball socket and rubber boots for the two upper bushings.

    * I also have 5-speed bushing kits available, please read below *
















    EDIT: these are once again available!

    I currently have a few sets of shifter bushings (both 4-speed and 5-speed versions available)

    Asking $45 shipped anywhere in North America; they are shipping from Canada

    I take paypal; IM for details.

    just thought I would mention I installed the same brand kit in my Wagon a few weeks ago and they are great quality - really nice and stiff. they even needed to be heated up a bit to soften them to get them on.

    well worth it!

    Thanks for the assurance, Chris! I installed the 5-spd version kit of the same brand back in Canada so it's nice to know everyone who buys these will be getting what they want out of it

    It is amazing how much different and better my FOX Wagon shifts now since replacing the old bushing's.
    I wouldn't wait until you only have 3rd and 4th gears and no reverse before replacing these bushing's.
    In a pinch you can improvise with two different size rubber hose materials and a couple of tie wraps to hold the hose in place.

    Thanks Alain!!! Life Saver...
