Shift coupler

[Yoni_d]

Hi Guys

I have noticed that my Shift Coupler is missing the rubber ring of one of its sides (as can be seen in the attached picture) which causing the shift rod to act in a weired way while changing gears.
I found this part (92842402900) but I dont need the entire part...only one rubber ring.
Do you know where I can find such a ring? maybe it has a catalog number that I can use?
I dont want to buy the entire Shift Coupler just because of one rubber ring...

Thanks!!!

one more question...does anybody knows the diamiter of the rubber bushing? (outside and inside)
I might find something like this also in my country instead of ordering it from the US...

Here's the specs for the bushings I used:

Dorman Motormite 31016 Suspension, Shock Mounting Hardware Features:
• Shock Mounting Hardware
• Location: Shock Absorber Bushings
• Make: Ford 1965 and newer
• Size: .400" I.D. x .996" O.D. x .556"

I also saw some generic polyurethane sway bar bushings that could be easily modified to fit, but those would not insulate vibration very well.

Or you could get the right ones for $5.00 here.

Yep, thats what I did.

The actual part is this:

The bushings from 928 Specialists were approx. 1mm thicker each than the originals, and reduced the shifter side-to-side slop to pretty much nil. I've done this on both my cars - one has a short shifter and one is stock, and the difference in both cases was huge.

OP is in Israel, he was looking for something generic that he could make work.

The shock bushings I found were $3 at Pep Boys (pack of 2), and was roadworthy again that same Sunday afternoon.

Sell it and get an Automatic, issue resolved

Amazingly, Porsche centers and independent workshops all over the world use the same part numbers

Yoni, give the parts desk at your nearest Porsche center a call and see how much the bushings are (part # 911 424 223 03) - if they're $5 at US specialists, then expect to pay a little more, however small plastic parts are usually not hugely more expensive in my experience.

Are you sure that this is the correct part number? I just called to Porsche center and I have been told that there is no such part...at least in their computer...
