Shift coupler

[plumb4u2]

I just took a ride for the first time after installing new Wevo shift coupler and rebuilt my pedal cluster with bronze bushings...OMG what a difference, my stock couplers bushings where way gone, but I think even with new bushings it would not shift this good.....I recommend this upgrade to everyone...Thanks again Pelican keep taking my money

how hard was the bushing install (time)

I made my own coupler bushings - the wevo is great but with a little effort and $200 savings, I like what I ended up with

+1 for WOW on a well adjusted and non-sloppy shifter


what's next :evilgrin:

[plumb4u2]

pedal cluster bushings where a breez....only trick was figuring out how to get the pedal cluster removed from the car(this was my first time)....I would say took me 2 1/2 hrs total...if I had to do it again hr tops

next on the list...premuffler,m&k muffler, steve wong chip...oh yeah cant wait

ivangene what did you make for yourself? were talking about the coupler in front of the back seats right?

Nothing against new mounts, spark plug wires, brake pads or tires to name a few commonly replaced items.

Most dramatic upgrade results are a result from replacing worn components with new.

YMMV when replacing good serviceable parts with new/upgraded parts.

I did the bushings a while ago and that alone made a huge difference. I did it in a morning. I had to fiddle with the fine adjustments to get it right.

Delrin - tight slip fit on the pin, loose press fit on the housing...made it round and used a dremel to knock the "ears" off in the areas needed for clearance - made the ears thicker too so there is no twist...its snug to the square part... been about a year, feels sliky smooth

also made a delrin ring for the stupid steering column sleeve to replace that plastic deteriorated thing...

I think the Wevo coupler will transmit a bit more noise through the u-joint, given that it is solid. It moves nicely in any direction though, and has no binding action so I think of it or the Stomski with the ball joint as a must have with a short shifter.

[plumb4u2]

I do have the factory short shift kit installed and I do not notice anymore noise or vibration through the wevo then before.....you may have a point rusnak but if the noise is there I cant notice it....even if there was a minor amount of noise with this upgrade it is worth it cause damn it feels better

lots clusters need a small weld job done to them..new bushings and a WOW
