Install Guide:
Installing these bushings is pretty straight forward. The guide below covers the most criticalinstallation steps. Information related to removing any parts required to gain access to the shiftercables on the transmission is not included. Typically, several hose clamps and a few nuts will need tobe removed in order to take the intake piping and filter box out of the engine bay.
Step 1:
First, you will need to remove the (2)cotter pins that hold the shifter cablesonto the transmission’s linkage pins.
Step 2:
Remove the “U” shaped spring clip thatholds the cable on the driver’s side of the vehicle onto the transmission. Thisis the easiest if you use a set of slip joint pliers to grasp the top of the clipwhile prying it off of the cable (as shownin figure 2).
Step 3:
Next, the OEM rubberbushings will need to beremoved from the cables.Typically, the older thebushings are, the easier theyare to remove. The bushingscan be removed simply bybushing them through themetal ring and out the otherside. Additionally, it is oftenpossibly to place a screw-driver through the hole in the bushing and pry thebushing out of the cable.Exercise caution whenremoving the bushings asplacing excessive force on the cables where they attach to the bracket on the trans-mission can irreparablydamage the cables. Figure 3shows an image of cablesbefore and after the OEMbushing has been removed.
Step 4:
The new bushings can now beinserted into their respectivecables. Simply slide the bushingin from one side of the cableand install the spiral retainingring in the groove on the otherside of the bushing. The spiralretaining ring can be installed byhand, with no tools. Simplyuncoil the ring, place one end in the groove, and work the ringinto the groove in a circularmotion until the entire ring hasbeen installed as shown in theimages below.Step 4a shows installation of thelarge bushing. Step 4b showsinstallation of the smallerbushing.
Step 5:
Once the bushings and theirrespective spiral retainingrings have been installed, thecables can be reattached tothe transmission. First, slidethe bushings onto the pins onthe transmission.
Step 6b:
Note that this install guide depicts installa- tion of the RSX / EP3 shifter cable bush-ings. Installation of these bushings into an8th Generation Civic is identical with theexception that the large and small bush-ings are reversed. Figure 6a shows thebushings installed on an RSX while figure6b shows them installed on an 8th Gen-eration Civic.
Step 6a:
Install the supplied cotter pins to hold the bushings in place.Finally, install the “U” shapedspring clip that you removedfrom the driver’s side cable. Ahammer will probably beneeded to tap the clip intoplace.
