72 240Z Type B Shifter Bushings??

[JeffMopar]

Hello All,

Well after searching the site I still cant find an answer to my question so I am going to post it. I have a 72 Type B 4-speed. I have to replace the 2 side bushings and the 1 bottom bushing. The Fische I have doesnt show the bent shaft shifter at all. Does anybody know if the part number for the bottom bushing is 32861-24900 or 32861-N4200 ? Or are they the same? Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Thank You, Jeff

the bottom nylon bushings are all the same.

There is a thread about a door hinge bushing that can be used in place of the plastic stockers.

Maybe its on Blue's tech tips... Yup, http://atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/shifterbushing/index.html

I got a couple from Courtesy Parts along with some other parts (Courtesy is cheaper than my local Nissan dealer) but your local dealer can probably get them.

Thanks for the quick replys. I am heading over to the local Nissan dealer tomorrow and started pulling part numbers tonight, but the straight shifter in the picture threw me off.

Shouldn't be a problem at the local dealership. The parts counter guy looked up the parts and had the top two bushings in stock and the bottom pivot within 48 hours.

After going through the effort of making my own out of brass, I saw some on eBay ( made of brass as well). They were pricier than the plastic ones, but I'm sure you'll never replace them again.

The original plastic ones in my '71 Z lasted 40 years. If the replacement set of plastic ones from Nissan last as long, I'm sure I'll never replace them again, either

My plastic OEM bushings lasted nowhere near 40 years, they shattered and fell into the transmission to get ground into dust many moons ago.

I went with the chrysler door hinge bronze bushings and it was super easy to install and my shift feel is crisp and wonderful. I see no reason to use plastic bushings when such a cheap and easy bronze solution is available. The parts were hanging on the peg at the local parts shop!

Around five bucks, just slot in the ones that fit, the rest got thrown in my parts bin.
