Round two: Shift bushings and short shift.



Am I really the only 5spd quattro owner who has problems with his shifter
bushings and/or wants a shorter throw on the shifter? No replies yet...

The car: 85 4ksq

The problem: _very_ sloppy shifiting and occassional problems getting
into fifth with reverse being more often problematic (but reverse
lock-out still works).

Does anyone know where I can get a kit to rebuild the shifter? I would
like one that has all the bushings etc I need to replace, but in the
alternative, what parts do I need to get to do this? Also, does anyone
make a short throw shift kit for these cars? I have a 50% reduction in my
GTI. Compared to that it seems like I have to reach into the back seat to
get the next gear! Thanks.
