Type 25 Shift Rod Bellows - 5 Speed Models

Protect your gear linkage and maintain smooth gear selection with this replacement lower gear shifter bellows for 5-speed VW Type 25 (T3) Transporter models. Manufactured from durable NBR (nitrile butadiene rubber), this bellows fits to the pivot at the bottom of the gear lever, protecting the gear lever return spring from dirt, water and road debris.

The return spring is responsible for centring the gear lever after selecting 1st gear or reverse, allowing the gearstick to naturally return to the neutral position. When the original bellows becomes split or damaged, moisture and dirt can enter the mechanism, causing the spring to seize or stick. This can lead to stiff or inaccurate gear changes and make selecting gears increasingly difficult.

Replacing this inexpensive component helps keep the gear linkage clean, ensuring the return spring operates correctly and prolonging the life of the gear selector mechanism.
