If your anything like myself, I can't stand sagging headliners, clunky doors, and mostly loose feeling driveline components.  

I had my Dodge Neon for about a year until I started noticing the shifter slowly gaining slop in between shifts.  It came to the point where there was a good inch of play between throws and thought to myself that enough is enough.  I called Summit and ordered a brand new short throw shifter kit for my beloved Neon.  It was all installed in about 2hrs and after it was all said and done I still had slop.  It was only a matter of time before I consulted the local Compact Car guru and had him educated me that I was focusing on the wrong component.   All that I needed was a simple polyurethane shifter bushing kit from Energy Suspension.  One phone call and a few days later the parts were installed.

I am simply amazed at these simple little parts.  They worked so good I even reinstalled the factory shifter and have noticed no delay in throw considering the overall increased leverage.  I certainly didn't lose any race due to missing shifts or not being able to hit the gears fast enough.  Next time a buy any aftermarket part, I'm going to do my research.
