This is a big issue as the actual bolt holes are not parallel, but rather come away from each other at about a 20 degree angle. The Cobb bushing is all polyurethane, and about an inch thick where the bolt hole are (with metal sleeves in the holes).

This allows for quite a bit of play on how you install the bolts, they can come in from quite an angle, rather than perpendicular to the hole, and still go in. The issue is that the stock bushing only has a small, roughly 3/32 in thick, metal flange where it bolts up. The rear bushing actually came apart rather simply, but installing it was a 3 hour crusade. The thing that really sucked was the rear shifter bushing. The fact that my dad has a couple of four post lifts didn't hurt, but it would have been just as simple (and easier in some cases) to do the job with a set of jack stands. Taking everything apart was rather simple. I am still slightly bleeding on my keyboard thanks to the underside. Other than that, the install in the top side was pretty simple.īut oh the underside. My suggestion would be that anyone who is planning on doing this install immediately replace the hardware PRIOR to stripping the included SHCSs. I picked up a few SHCSs from my local Ace (and an easy-out) and replaced the hardware with that, what a difference. I know that it was not cross threaded, as I never fully took it out, it just jammed up for whatever reason and then Torque-O-Matic (me) got impatient and made it even more FUBAR. I managed to strip the head on the top screw while tightening it, yet the shift rod still slide around in it. The socket head cap screws that come on the dual adjustable shifter are garbage in my opinion. I have to say overall I am impressed by the package, but one thing has me disappointed, the hardware and bolt holes. Today I installed the sts and bushings from Cobb in my 2012 base WRX.
