of the change extension. You can
now gently pull the change exten-
sion and the shift lever from the
vehicle.
STEP 7. Place the change exten-
sion on a clean, flat surface and
remove the two change ball lock-
nuts using a 10mm socket (the
bolts have a 10mm flat to assist in
removing the locknuts).
STEP 8. Separate the change ball
holder from the dust seal and re-
move the holder, noting the direc-
tion the holder is located. Gently
pull the shift lever from the change
extension (the dust seal and the
shift lever ball seat should also
come out).
STEP 9. Remove the bushings and
rear joint collar from the bottom of
the shift lever. Remove the four o-
rings from the rear joint collar.
STEP 10. Carefully remove the dust
seal and plastic ball seat from the
shift lever.
ASSEMBLY
STEP 11. After thoroughly cleaning
the dust seal and plastic ball seat,
reassemble both onto the B&M
Short Throw Shifter. Using the
supplied lithium grease, carefully
pull back the dust seal and liberally
lubricate the shifter and ball seat.
STEP 12. Insert the shifter and dust
seal assembly back into the change
extension. Replace the change ball
holder in the same direction it was
originally, being careful to work the
dust seal lip back into the holder
opening. Replace the two nuts and
bolts, making sure the square por-
tion of the bolt is fully seated.
Tighten to 7 lb-ft.
STEP 13. Thoroughly clean the rear
joint collar and assemble the sup-
plied four small red silicone bush-
ings into the four grooves. Again,
using the supplied lithium grease,
lubricate the joint collar, bushings
and hole in the bottom end of the
shifter. Gently insert the joint collar
into the hole in the shifter.
STEP 14. Reinstall the change ex-
tension and shifter back into the
vehicle. Note that the shifter must
be carefully guided into the shift
lever dust seal to keep it from rip-
ping the seal - take your time.
STEP 15. Remount the front of the
change extension to the transmis-
sion and tighten the bolt to 16 lb-ft.
STEP 16. Using your forefinger,
carefully roll the shift lever dust
seal back on to the change exten-
sion. Replace the two bolts in the
rear extension mounting rubber and
tighten to 16 lb-ft.
STEP 17. Honda Civic/CRX, 1990-
93 Integra: Using the two smaller
remaining silicone bushings, lubri-
cate them and place them on the
rear joint collar, one on either side
of the shifter. Swing the change rod
up and align the shifter so they
slide together, being careful to not
damage the bushings. Insert the
bolt and tighten the nut to 16 lb-ft.
1994-up Integra: Take two of the
larger silicone bushings, lubricate
them and place them on the rear
joint collar, both on the passenger
(right) side of the shifter. Place the other large bushing on the driver
(left) side othe the shifter. Note: If
you wish to bias the shifter toward
a more racing oriented shift pat-
tern, reverse the above placement
(two on the driver's side and one on
the passenger's). Lubricate the two
remaining small bushings and place
them on the rear joint collar, one on
each side of the shifter. Swing the
change rod up and align the shifter
so they slide together, being care-
ful to not damage the bushings.
Insert the bolt and tighten the nut to
16 lb-ft.
STEP 18. Reconnect the two rub-
ber exhaust hangers.
STEP 19. Carefully lower vehicle
and install shift knob. Slide the
shifter through each gear, checking
for binding or rough movement. If
the shifter does not move smoothly,
raise and support vehicle and check
that the bushings are properly
seated and that the linkage does
not bind.
