T4 Transporter Gear Shift Rod Ball (Gearbox End)

This gear selector ball, also known as the ball pivot support bush, is located at the gearbox end of the selector rod on all Volkswagen Transporter T4 models. With an outer diameter of 24mm, this component provides essential support and alignment for the gear selector rod, allowing smooth and precise gear changes. Over time, the original ball and bush can wear, flatten, or crack, leading to vague gear selection, excess play in the gear lever, or difficulty engaging gears.

Positioned at the end of the selector rod closest to the gearbox, this ball pivot plays a critical role in maintaining correct geometry within the gear linkage system. Replacing a worn selector ball restores positive gear engagement, reduces slop in the linkage, and improves overall driving feel. Manufactured from durable materials, it is designed to withstand constant movement, vibration, and drivetrain load for long service life.

Ideal for routine maintenance, gearbox work, or curing sloppy gear change issues on T4 Transporters.
