Is there a fix, for type A?
Any know solutions? The washer I installed between the forks really helped a lot, but I guess is something temporary.

Loose shifter, type A tranny
I found a similar issue, someplace else, apparently there is a guy from Zspecialites called Z man of Washington that sells some bushing kits for Type A, here is the link. "If you have the "A" type, the shifter rod passes through a pipe with rubber bushings and connects with a nut on the end of the shifter. Check here to see the physical difference. http://www.zhome.com/ZCMnL/tech/69-83TrannyShifterDrawing.jpg Z man of washinton has bushing kits for the A type. I have used a nut and bolt through the folk connection point to tighten up the slack there. Use a self locking nut (nylock) or a pair of skinny nuts locked together to leave the joint moveable but still provide compression to remove the play." http://www.zcar.com/70-83_tech_discussion_forum/240z_sick_shifter_891684.0.html http://zspecialties.com/

Is there a fix, for type A?
Hello, Its me again, Its been 4 years, but I decided to continue with the 240z project. I replaced part 2,3,4,30 31, 38, from the diagram. I figured out the fork thing. My "loosesness" is coming from part 30 and 31. I decided to put a washer between both ends of part 40/41 in order for pin 30 to be more tight and helped a bit, but I haven't changed parts 33/ 34 Does anyone know were I can buy them?

Is there a fix, for type A?
Here is a quote from kinfish "The "A" style transmissions used in the Series I 240's are inherently sloppy with age due to poor design. That is one reasons they upgraded to the "B" style which uses the nylon bushings shown in the "sblake01" response. I found that the problem is caused by wear of the fork, not the pin which is held in place by that tiny snapring. I also replaced the rubber bushings holding the shift lever but it did nothing to reduce sloppyness. I decided to live with it!" I already changed the bushings (not for brass ones) what does he mean by fork?

Is there a fix, for type A?
Hello I have a 240z 70 vin 05820, so I have the type A, however I already changed 3 bushings and the pin, nothing changed, so in a post I read a guy who sais it was the fork, so I went on ebay and just typed "240z fork" and bought one looks like a "Y" (but sideways) but apparently it looks like something for the cluth, is this the right fork or are any other forks?. thank you very I am getting tyred of the sloopines and I want to keep the stock tranny.
