are these two bushings important?

[Dylan JZ]

saw these in another thread, but my tranny didnt come with them.. I still installed my C's STS in spite of this, but will it cause any damage from not having it?

they look to be just for dampening. I dont see how they could relate to anything wearing out. especially when looking at my C's installation instructions..


advice?

I would have figured this would have been answered by now, at least in a vague manner lol.

important for a stock shifter? Yes, those are what the ball pivots on.

Important for a short shifter? No. Any shifter with a shortened throw has its own ball assembly with its own bushings.

well I still put in the marlin crawler bushing where it would logically go, I just had never seen those bushings I posted before. but if they're unimportant to STS' then I have no problems.

the C's didn't come with those bushings yet it noted them in the pictures. but like I said it wont affect anything right?

Not needed with aftermakert STS. When I installed my V3 shifter didn't have to install the seats as it is not needed. The v3 STS has its own pivot housing as with the C's shifter.

yeah see, the C's has its own pivot housing but in the instructions it shows the user putting those stock pieces into the housing. but like I said it doesnt seem to affect anything in feel or operation so I'll leave it at that. thanks again guys.
