87 GL shifter pulls out of place

Featured Replies

I have an 87 GL 5spd 4x4. The shifter pulls right out when pulled upward. I’m trying to figure out which part I need. It seems like it could be a gear shift bushing but I’m just not sure. Any thoughts? Below are some pics of my problem area and the part I’m considering. Thanks!

That's not the right part.  That's the rubber for the linkage.

You need subaru part # 7331 46000 Plastic bushing that grabs that shifters ball joint when bolted down)  and 7331 54000   (less important but helps the fit greatly)

They may not be available from subaru anymore.

Otherwise, stop pulling up on the shifter.
