Hello,
I have a '65 and I'm rebuilding the 901 trans. My shift coupler is really loose, and there is a decent gap in it. I know the bushings are old and need to be replaced, but it doesn't look like the gap was caused by poor bushings, but maybe a mismatched part. The casting stamp on the coupler states that it's an '84. It looks like the correct one, but I was hoping that someone might recognize something from the photo.
I know the bushings are cheap, but if I have to replace the whole coupler, I'd like to go with a nicer one, or make my own custom one. (I read the thread where people welded their shaft onto other better non-Porsche couplers)
So what do you guys think? Is this serviceable with new bushings?
Thanks.
-Michael
