Description
The Miata has always had one of the best feeling shifters on the planet. But as they get older, some of the components start to wear and it slowly loses precision. You might not even notice, but it's not what it was. Luckily, it's easy to rebuild, and you can access everything from inside the car.
This kit includes all the pieces you need to make your shifter feel new again. All internal components are factory Miata parts, the boot is a high-quality aftermarket equivalent.
For 1999-05 5-speed transmissions as well as 1999-01 6-speed (production up to 08/01/01).
Includes:
small shift boot (R501-17-47Z) lower shift bushing (0398-17-462A) upper shifter pivot ball bushing (R502-17-492) smooth wave washer (8599-17-482) tabbed wave washer (M505-17-482) lower shifter pivot ball bushing (R503-17-492)

My shifter was in need of a rebuild because the boots were worn so bad that they tore and leaked head oil onto my exhaust. Shifter felt 10x better! So smooth and sturdy, helped a lot with sound deadening too
Didn’t realize how wore out the old set up was.!
Was installed in an hour and a half half
Excellent Kit. Wrkks as it should like all Flyin MIata parts.
Both the small and large boots on my car were completely torn. After this quick install, this and the large boot made my shifter feel brand new. No more sloppy wiggle in all 6 gears and allowed for more confidence while finding gears. Helped with some sound deadening too without all the tears. 00 special edition
My shifter was upgraded already to a short throw, so this kit basically refreshed my bushings and helped me discover the previous work done was incorrect. once I got this kit installed with fresh grease the transmission was about 40% smoother. Totally worth it. The boot was a waste for mine as it was already new, but I threw in the new one anyways. I suggest peaking at your shifter before buying to see if you need the insulation or boot before ordering. Flying Miata helped me identify that my 6 Spd short throw was not from factory, which helped my install. Great team, Great support, Fast shipping, Great product. What more can you ask for?
