Type 25 Shift Rod Bush (Above Fuel Tank) - Aircooled and Early Diesel Engines

Restore smooth, precise gear changes in your VW T25/T3 with this early gear linkage guide bush, designed specifically for aircooled models and some early diesel variants. This essential component is located above the fuel tank, where it supports and guides the long gear selector shaft running from the gear lever to the gearbox.

Over time, the original bush can wear out, crack, or disintegrate, causing excessive play, vague shifting, and difficulty engaging gears. This high-quality replacement restores correct alignment of the linkage, dramatically improving shift feel and reducing unwanted movement in the gear selector rod.

Replacing this bush is a worthwhile upgrade during gearbox servicing or when the fuel tank is out for maintenance, as access is much easier with the tank removed.
