Shifter Refresh Bundle: Delrin Shift Bushing + King Billet Coupler (Late Style) | VW Type 1 1965 & Newer
If you're tired of vague, mushy shifting in your VW, this is the upgrade your transmission has been waiting for. We bundled our two best-selling shifter parts together so you can do the whole job in one trip under the back seat — and save $10 doing it.
What's Included
- "The Original" Snap-Lock Delrin Shift Bushing (#CH01): Heavy-duty Delrin replaces the mushy factory rubber/plastic bushing. Snap-lock design installs without disassembly. Made in USA.
- King Performance Billet Shift Coupler, Late Style (#CH15): Machined 7075-T651 aluminum, hard black anodized, with a zinc-plated cone set screw and 8mm locking jet nuts. A precision replacement that won't deform like the worn-out factory plastic coupler.
Vehicle Fitment
- VW Beetle (Type 1): 1965 and newer
- VW Bus: 1965 and newer
- VW Karmann Ghia: 1965 and newer
- VW Type 3: 1965 and newer

Why Choose Washburn's Metal?
